Leopold is a classic après-ski sweater re-imagined with modern construction. This unisex design has a relaxed, comfortable fit with dropped shoulders. It is entirely knitted in a simple broken rib stitch.

You can choose between the sweater version with a few buttons at the top and the cardigan version. In both cases, the button band is knitted at the same time as the body. The sample is knitted with DK weight yarn.
