Benchmark KAL

Make this easy fitting drop-shoulder pullover just in time for the holidays. Benchmark is sure to be a new favorite! Styled to be worn with positive ease, it’s possible that anyone can enjoy more than one size, either closer fitting or extra roomy for a cool casual vibe.

Plied Yarns North Ave is a wooly bouncy yarn that comes in so many fantastic 2 ply colors, so you can choose two shades for whatever look your heart desires. The fabric will be light and warm and so delightful for layering. The uncomplicated seed stitch and mini mosaic stripes give playful texture between simple stockinette sections.
