Sea Maeve is a classic fisherman style drop-shoulder sweater worked from the top-down. Inspired by old images of fishermen in sweaters, designer Jill Thompson Beach takes a modern approach to this design, which features all-over ribbing, four panels of cables and a thick collar. Knitted in beautifully soft Cirro made from Suri alpaca, organic cotton and Merino wool, this is the perfect light fluffy sweater to make. The result of combining a 1x1 rib and two panels of a braided round cable creates a beautiful, modern, and ultra-wearable piece that you can wear in a multitude of ways.
