About:

The Descending Peaks sweater is my first ever sweater design and I can’t be more proud of the way it turned out! This is a top-down sweater and meant to be a relaxed and comfortable everyday sweater as well as a relaxed and comfortable make. This sweater has a straight and easy fit with a lovely textured stitch design.

This is and intermediate level pattern. It might take some time to get used to the DiCh stitch. Once you’ve got a hang of it it should be smooth sailing from there on.

This sweater comes with two border options; a ribbing option (shown on the pink example sweater) and a clean border option (shown on the green example).

This pattern has been pattern tested!
