Jupiter is a dynamic, stripe-driven sweater featuring short row stripes placed around the neck, body, and edges, echoing the flowing bands of the planet it’s named after.

These gentle, uneven stripes shape the fabric as much as they decorate it and make the sweater follow the body naturally. Adding subtle contour, better fit, and a sense of orbiting motion around the sweater.

The rest of the piece is kept simple in stockinette with a different textured yarn and color, letting the uneven stripes shine like the shifting bands of Jupiter.
