DRK Everyday Sweater by Andrea Mowry is a simple, wearable pullover designed to become part of your regular wardrobe. Worked seamlessly from the top down, it has a relaxed everyday shape with thoughtful finishing details and the ease of being able to try it on as you go.
This kit uses our Sportlicious yarn base, a soft and smooth sport / 5ply yarn with beautiful stitch definition. It’s a lovely match for this design, creating a sweater that feels light enough for layering, but still cosy, practical and easy to wear.
Why we love it
The DRK Everyday Sweater is exactly what the name suggests — a simple, useful sweater you can reach for often. The clean silhouette lets the yarn and colour take centre stage, making it a beautiful project for tonal, semi-solid and softly variegated colourways.
