Ando by Alison Green

Bands of slip-stitch colorwork adorn the circular yoke and sleeves of Ando, giving beautiful focal points as well as tons of color-combination potential. This pullover is knit seamlessly from the top of the ribbed neck down, with short row shaping creating a great fit. The simple elegance of Ando lends itself to dressing up or down for a comfortable layer no matter what your schedule has in store.
