Jupiter Crop by Boyland Knitworks. Jupiter Crop is a cute, top down sweater inspired by our handsome Rooster, Jupiter! All-over colorwork keeps this design fun and flying off your needles! A few rounds with 3 colors to carry add a tiny bit of challenge to keep things interesting. Top-down design means you can try this sweater on as you go, so you can alter the length as needed for your perfect fit.
Gauge: 20 sts and 28 rounds over 4” [10 cm] in colorwork after blocking
