The Design
“A relaxed aura.”
The Spring Hill Sweater has a boxy, hip-skimming silhouette—simple, timeless, and so, so comfortable. Designed by Bobbi Intveld for Blue Sky Fibers’ Classic Series, this pullover’s dropped shoulders and open neckline add to its relaxed aura. And little bit of ribbing at the neck, sleeve cuffs, and hem keep the edges nice and tidy!
This casual sweater is plush and wonderfully soft in Blue Sky Fibers —and you can play with speckled goodness with ! Cotton is soft by nature, and this fiber lets all that natural softness bounce right through its loose, 2-ply twist. With a springy-ness that’s reminiscent of wool and a fantastic range of deeply saturated colors (Organic Cotton Worsted) or artistic, printed speckles (Printed Organic Cotton Worsted) both yarns are 100% certified organic and environmentally friendly!
