Ribbing that flows gracefully from the collar, angling with the plump ribbing at the yoke that cascades down to the edge, gives the linear silhouette of the classic ribbed sweater a striking and dynamic look. Worked top down and in the round, with 3 strands together throughout, the Chunky Rib Sweater features a high collar and a comfortable, roomy fit. German short rows shape the back, raising the neckline.
