Whether you’re hitting the trails or cozying up by the campfire, you can’t beat a classic knit pullover. Designed for the Hinterland Straits 2017 collection, this sweater showcases the home-grown textures of Hinterland Range. It’s knit bottom-up in the round to the underarms, with the front, back, and sleeve caps worked flat above the underarms and seamed for added structure. Tubular cast-ons and bind-offs neaten the edges. 

NOTE: Stitch pattern is charted only.
