Tuckerman Fade
Tuckerman Fade symbolizes grit, guts and determination, the core drivers of “extreme” skiers who tackle Tuckerman Ravine, a highly traveled backcountry New Hampshire skiing destination.
Tuckerman Fade includes four colors and more sizes with finished chest measurements of 36.75-68” / 93-173 cm. The sweater is knit from the top down and in the round resulting in a seamless construction. Short rows are invisibly incorporated in the neckline, followed by colorwork which is found on the yoke and along the bottom of the sweater body and sleeves. Directions include both a folded hem (shown) or ribbed hem for the sleeves and body.
Tuckerman Fade is designed to be worn with positive ease of 4-8” / 10-20 cm.
