Joan Forgione’s Wraparound V-neck has a delightfully casual fit. Breezy lacework begins in the back before making its way forward to create an intriguingly modern and very breathable sweater. This worsted weight piece would be lovely any time of year, but it’s especially exciting to have an excuse to use one of the many cool cotton yarns we have.

Designer Jaclene Sini put a new spin on a basic basketweave pattern with the Color-dash Pullover, and the results are really cool. This short-sleeved raglan tee was knit up in Cotton Fleece Yarn, a trusted classic here at the shop. Lovely in two shades of a similar color, I’d love to see how this texture/color technique would look with other color combinations. Perhaps using a natural shade with a brighter color, or even just black and white!
