Knitorious RBG by Park Williams Ravelry Pattern

This pattern comes with instructions for Top-Down construction OR the original Bottom-Up construction. You will receive 2 PDFs to download upon purchasing.

The RBG sweater is inspired by Ruth Bader Ginsburg. I wanted to find a way to honor the important work she has done and continues to do as a Supreme Court Justice, while also paying homage to her amazing collar collection. My hope is that this sweater will endow the wearer with the strength, perseverance, gravitas and integrity we so rightfully associate with The Knitorious RBG.
