Tritone means “three tunes” like the three chords of the lyre. She was also one of the minor muses in ancient Greek folklore.

The Tritone pullover is knitted seamlessly top-down starting at the neckband. The sleeves and body are separated at the underarm and knitted separately. The neckband can be folded double for extra warmth and volume, or left unfolded for a funnel neck.

The yoke is knitted in stranded colorwork with increases incorporated into the pattern. There is also a bit of colorwork on the sleeves. For best results, choose three colors with enough contrast for the best result (ie. one that is very light, one that is medium contrast and one that is clearly darker).
