In the sport of climbing, a “free solo” is a climb made with no ropes or gear — only your faith in yourself keeps you on the cliff face.

Life gives you plenty of opportunities to free solo, and this sweater is a reminder to keep that faith in yourself strong.

Free Solo is a topdown sweater with a circular yoke, decorated in gradient shades that fade in and out of each other. The effect looks complicated, but it’s really just a simple slip stitch pattern!

It’s the perfect sweater to showcase a gorgeous color palette like John Arbon’s Harvest Hues, a Merino-Zwartbles wool blend with lots of character.
