The zip version of the Skipper sweater features a neckline split for added versatility. Like the Skipper Stripe Sweater, it is worked in half-brioche stitch. However, the zipped version has tapered sleeves and a longer sleeve length. Choose your favorite details and create your own version by combining the instructions.

The sweater is worked seamlessly from the top down using DK weight yarn.
