Moon Dog

Introducing the Moon Dog dropped shoulder jumper, a stylish and cozy piece perfect for any wardrobe. This jumper features a trendy turtleneck, tapered sleeves, and a fashionable split high-low hem, making it an ideal choice for both casual and dressy occasions. Expertly crafted to be worked seamlessly from the top down, the construction begins with flat knitting for the back and front of the yoke, before being elegantly joined in the round at the underarm. For added versatility, stitches are picked up along the armholes, allowing you to knit the sleeves in the round right up to the cuff.

To ensure maximum comfort and freedom of movement, I recommend incorporating at least 6” / 15.25 cm of positive ease into your fit, allowing for a relaxed silhouette around the shoulders and armholes. Whether you're snuggling up at home or going out with friends, the Moon Dog jumper is designed to keep you both comfortable and chic.
