Jupiter Crop Kit

Pre-order

Designed by: Caitlin Hunter

Description: The Jupiter Crop is a cuter, top down sweater. Allover colourwork keeps this design fun and flying off your needles! A few rounds with 3 colour to carry add a tiny bit of a challenge to keep things interesting. Top- down design means you can ty this sweater on as you go, so you can alter the length as needed for your perfect fit.

Knit in 5 colours using Retrosario Vovo, a beautiful non-superwash sport weight Portuguese wool.

Sizes: Measurements given are for the finished garment. This sweater is designed to fit with 0-5” 0-13 cm of positive ease at the bust. Decreases are made before the hem and cuff ribbing for a gently-fitted waist and sleeve. If you prefer a more relaxed fit, you can omit the decreases to create a straight silhouette. Note that any modifications will alter the yardage requirements. See schematic on page x for full fit details.
