The Counterpoint pullover explores contrast and balance through a simple two-color slip-stitch motif that frames the circular yoke. Inspired by the musical idea of counterpoint, the design brings together color and structure so each element supports the other without competing for attention. Working one color per round, the pattern creates depth and texture without floats, making the process smooth and approachable while producing a fabric that feels engaging to knit and visually striking.
