In the Wendell Street Pullover, the tradition of a classic fisherman’s knit meets clean American elegance in a modern, reimagined maritime pullover. Lush, rope-like cable motifs ripple through its yoke, slipping like water into ribbing as they move toward the hem. From a trendy funnel neck flow featured cables along the saddle shoulder devolving into ribs near the elbow and finishing with a cable detail at the wrist. This design is worked from the top down.
