Whitney Peak

Introducing the Whitney Peak Sweater, a stylish reimagining of the beloved Salkantay sweater. This updated design features a modern cropped body and sleeves, along with unique edge treatments that give it a fresh, contemporary look. The beauty of the Whitney Peak is that, since it is constructed from the top down, you have the flexibility to easily customize both the sleeve and body lengths to perfectly suit your personal style and fit preferences.

For those interested in colorwork, be sure to check out the original Salkantay sweater to see how the intricate designs come to life against a darker background color paired with lighter foreground hues. The Whitney Peak pattern includes two comprehensive sets of charts—one designed with a light background and another with a dark backdrop—making it easier than ever to follow along as you craft your new favorite piece.

This seamless sweater is crafted using the stranded colorwork technique, allowing you to switch between colors effortlessly for stunning visual effects. An important detail to note: the beginning of the round marker is positioned at the center back, ensuring that your stitching lines up beautifully as you knit. Whether you're a seasoned knitter or a beginner eager to tackle a new project, the Whitney Peak Sweater is sure to become a delightful addition to your wardrobe. Start your knitting journey today with this versatile and chic pattern that combines functionality with flair!
