A shoulder ruffle sweatshirt for cozy school days and sweet holiday photos.
Ivy is a hip-length sweatshirt with a relaxed fit and signature shoulder ruffles.
Choose basic, balloon, bishop or puff sleeves, finish the neckband, cuffs and waistband in rib knit, and add optional inseam pockets.
Those shoulder ruffles make a simple sweatshirt feel special, and it's just as easy to sew.
