The Halibut sweater is a traditional circular yoke style featuring bold, graphic halibut motifs. Knit seamlessly from the top down, you have options for a turtleneck, mock turtleneck or crew neck. This pattern is unisex and notes are included in the pattern on how to adjust the sleeve and body length for a perfect fit.
This sweater was inspired by Caitlin's new hometown of Homer, Alaska- known as the halibut capital of the world. This area is the traditional homeland of the Dena’ina, Sugpiaq, Yup’ik people, and halibut and the other sea life here have been an integral part of survival and culture for thousands of years.
