Sydney by Kate Oates is a form-fitting (if you so desire), voluptuous cowl neck pullover perfect for the chilly fall weather. The construction of this sweater is the focus point and fun puzzle of this sweater—the set-in sleeves are worked in the round! Yes, the sleeves, back, and front are all joined at the underarm and then worked contiguously. The glorious cowl is picked up and worked in the round. All you have to do is find the perfect buttons for this star piece of knitwear!
