Pretty sure you're never too old for matching sweaters with your Mom! 🥰

I was fortunate to be able to test knit this fun colorwork sweater design for Maxim Cyr (@maxtheknitter).

This colorwork yoke is just SO much fun for color play; choosing the colors is half the fun!

My Mom's was the first one I knit, and I was pretty stoked that I got gauge easily with my BFL Sport- Which is a really great sweater yarn if you have yet to try it!

As I was finishing up the body on my Mom's sweater, I kept noticing these skeins of Sugarplum Circus Merino Sport in my personal stash (yes, I stash my own yarn! 😂) that were just begging to be knit up into a second Hide and Peak sweater.

The added thought of having matching hand knit sweaters with my Mom was enough to get me to cake up and swatch said skeins, and I became a knitting maniac over the following 3 weeks to get them both done before the deadline.

My gauge was a touch small with the Merino Sport, but I liked my fabric on the US 6's, so I knit one size larger, and it turned out great!

Let me tell ya- The look on my Mom's face when I pulled out my own Hide and Peak sweater after she had hers on was well worth the late nights!

I honestly had so much fun knitting these, though... I'm almost tempted to put together another combo for a 3rd! 😅

Trust me- If you love colorwork sweaters, you will want to knit this sweater!

I just love the combination of high and low contrast within the same design.
