Academie is the perfect V-neck sweater. This classic and timeless piece will be a staple in your wardrobe. The fit of this sweater is loose and comfortable so you can wear it alone or over a shirt. Academie is constructed in a modern way with dropped shoulders; it is worked top-down, seamlessly.

Two options are available for knitting this pattern. For a fluffier version, you can opt for a fingering weight yarn knitted with a strand of mohair and silk. For a classic wool version, simply choose a DK weight yarn.
