Lomond

Campfire nights, hikes through the woods, and lounging at home on the weekends. Lomond by Sloane Rosenthal is all about the life we want to live outside of the 9-5 grind. This no-fuss top-down circular yoke sweater uses three contrasting colors of Weld for a simple, geometric, and laid back project. Gently oversized, Lomond is drafted with easy-to-wear A-line increases through the body, which can be easily omitted for a straighter fit.
