For an engaging knit that takes full advantage of Peerie’s crisp stitch definition, lively bounce, and all-around versatility, try the Ines Pullover. The highlight of this tailored, square turtleneck pullover are intriguing center panels of textural collage at both the front and the back. Half-twisted ribbing, garter stitch, and cable twists each take their turn on backgrounds of stockinette and reverse stockinette to yield a piece nothing short of impressive.
