Antler Peak
Antler Peak
Antler Peak is such a fun pullover to make and to wear. It’s very comfortable and can be dressed up or down. The easy stitch pattern makes the yoke entertaining to knit and every row of the chart is also written out.
Antler Peak is worked top-down and in the round in a completely seamless manner (unless you choose to sew down the inside edge of a double collar option). The hybrid yoke construction is the best of both worlds for ease of working and superior fit.
Four options are included for finishing the neckline and two options for the hemline as well as a matching textured stitch pattern for the hemline and sleeve cuffs.
Antler Peak will look great in any DK weight yarn that meets gauge and has good drape and stitch definition. Advise minimal color variation so the stitch pattern is not lost.
Sizing is inclusive with intended ease of 4-6 inches / 10-15 cm.
