Tryon Creek Pullover
Tryon Creek Pullover
Tryon Creek is a classic cabled pullover with a double collar that is sure to become a true wardrobe staple. Picture it with your favorite jeans or skirt on the beach, hiking or at dinners with friends and family, and even at work.
The fun cables flow from the top all the way down into the hem and sleeve cuff ribbing.
Construction is worked top-down and seamless with modified drop shoulders. Stability is built in as you go so that it keeps its shape as your wear it (a lot).
Tryon Creek will look good in any DK to light worsted yarn that meets gauge, has little color variation, and good stitch definition. And with its unisex styling, the design looks great on everyone!
