Marilyn V-neck Sweater is a timeless, minimalist wardrobe staple that captivates with its clean lines and modern silhouette. Featuring approximately 15 cm / 6” of positive ease, an elegant V neckline, and luxuriously soft yarn, it is designed for effortless everyday wear. The sweater is worked top down, both flat and in the round, and finished with a professionally tailored folded stockinette neckline — a refined detail that gives the garment a polished, ready-to-wear look. This pattern offers an enjoyable technical knit for the intermediate knitter and rewards its wearer with a beautifully fitting sweater that embodies everyday luxury.
