Midnight Sun
In interior Alaska, during the summer solstice the sun never really sets, but rather sinks low in the horizon before quickly rising again. This perpetual daylight is referred to as the “midnight sun”, and fills the sky with gorgeous sunset colors. This form-fitting, top-down sweater, inspired in color by the midnight sun, features a wide boatneck. While multiple colors are carried throughout the sweater, no colorwork experience is needed because only one color is worked with at a time!
Sizing
I have provided instructions for 6 bust sizes. Finished bust sizes are as follows: 1(32”/81cm), 2(36”/91cm), 3(40”/102cm), 4(44”/112cm), 5(48”/122cm), 6(52”/132cm). Sweater is shown with no ease, but can also be worn with slight positive ease.
