Fibre Mood Ollie Sweater

The neckline is finished with rib knit, and the sleeves with classic cuffs. A patch pocket near the hem completes the playful look. Ollie is the perfect project for upcycling old shirts and sweatshirts. Bonus points for the faux button details on the front and cuffs - no fuss with buttonholes!
