Description

With a roomy fit and sporty stripes, Durak from the Berroco Portfolio Vol. 8 Collection is a dynamite choice for active kids and adults alike. This crewneck pullover has dropped shoulders in the children’s sizes and set-in sleeves for the adults, long sleeves, and fun pops of color that make it an easy grab and go layer for school, running errands, or weekend adventures. Durak is knit flat in pieces from the bottom up and seamed, adding structure to your finished sweater and making it more portable as you knit also—perfect for something to work on at the sidelines of practices or for easy tv knitting. Choose from Berroco’s fan-favorite Ultra Wool and Vintage yarns for your sweater, finding just the right color or fiber blend for each person who’s lucky enough to get one!
