Color Block Boat Neck Ribbed Knit Sweater
A ribbed knit jumper blocked in three horizontal bands, with the sleeves picking up the darkest of the three, a wide neckline sitting off the shoulder line, dropped shoulders and ribbed cuffs and hem.
Blocking a rib needs three yarns at once, so lots stay small.
A wide neck across a school desk
Parents' evening puts you on a small chair across a desk from a teacher, lit from overhead, with five minutes to look like somebody who turns up. A wide neckline sits off the shoulder line rather than at the throat, which opens out the collarbone and gives the face some air under that light.
The blocking does the rest from the other side of the desk. The three bands run across the body and the sleeves take the darkest of them, so the eye travels along the line of the knit instead of straight down it, and a dropped shoulder keeps the arm soft. The teacher notices the jumper and says so on the way out.
A neckline off the shoulder changes the whole upper line.
Three bands worked into one rib
The jumper is knitted in a rib and blocked into three horizontal bands, with the sleeves worked in the darkest of the three rather than in a colour of their own. The neckline is wide and sits off the shoulder line.
The shoulders are dropped, so the seam falls on the arm instead of on the bone, and the cuffs and the hem are ribbed to match the body. Every colourway is set against the same pale yoke, so only the bands below it change from one to the next.

Three yarns at once, so small lots
A blocked rib needs all three yarns running at the same time, which is why these come in small lots rather than continuously. The pairings with the darkest bands clear first, and a return of the same run is not guaranteed.
Take the pairing you want while it is listed. Fourteen days from delivery is enough to try it on at home and send it back unworn and in its original condition.
