about lowell

Created in my brand new hand dyed yarn line, LOWELL is a boxy, relaxed fit, deep raglan pullover with ¾ length sleeves. LOWELL is extra cozy with four different fabric options available. Like wearing your favorite boxy sweatshirt, LOWELL is a sweater you will reach for time and time again. You may want to make multiple versions.
