Atari Sweater Kits available on our website!

Though I have a habit of knitting and designing with as many different colours as I can fit into one sweater, I actually think that I’m happiest when putting together 3 colour palettes. Two neutrals with a pop, two tonals with a high contrast unexpected third colourway… there is loads of room to explore and have fun with 3 colour projects and that is exactly what I set out to do with this design. Atari is modern, simple, graphic and striking. It combines my favourite raglan shaping with some punchy colourwork. With a relaxed fit and easy to wear style it’s the type of knit I can’t get enough of.

Adult sample is shown with about 5” of positive ease.
