Some knits get saved for special occasions. This one is for every day: wrapped over pajamas with your morning coffee, thrown on with jeans, or layered over a dress. Moss stitch makes it reversible and keeps the edges lying flat, and soft, machine-washable acrylic means it’s ready to wear again tomorrow.
