Perfect Stranger

Listing is for the pattern (knitting instructions) only.

Have you ever spotted someone with fun style on the street and been inspired to create something of your own? Pass on the favor and inspire others with this relaxed-fit, drop-shouldered, color-blocked sweater.

Consider Perfect Stranger an opportunity to play around with stripe width and sequence, and to choose your favorite colorways. (I used the luxuriously soft Caravan by Crave Yarn.)

It’s the perfect canvas for you to explore your style!
