"This sweater is the knitter’s version of the perfect thermal base layer. Make it out of a super-soft fingering-weight yarn like Anzula Cloud to wear it next to the skin under your heavier vest, sweater, or coat. The lightweight yarn worked in a subtle texture creates a versatile fabric that warms without overheating so it can be worn from fall to spring. It’s worked bottom-up seamlessly with raglan yoke shaping."
The men's version is "shaped specifically to fit a man’s proportions. It includes longer sleeves, deeper armholes, and reverse A-line shaping."

Because it uses Anzula's Cloud light fingering weight yarn, these sweaters are light and breezy, perfect for outdoor activities during the warm parts of the day, but still soft and cozy enough for a night inside.
This book is chock full of great patterns for people who love to be outside. What pattern would you use and with what fantastic Anzula yarn? Leave a comment to be entered to win this book for yourself!
