North Sweater 2403-12 | Printed Knitting Pattern

The North Sweater is worked from the top down with a striking stripe pattern worked according to a chart. One strand of Sandnes Garn Sunday is held together with one strand of Tynn Silk Mohair throughout.

The yoke is worked back and forth at first, using short rows to shape the neckline while working raglan increases. Once the neckline has been shaped, the work is joined in the round and the raglan increases are continued. The body and sleeves are then divided and completed separately. Finally, the neckband is worked to finish the sweater.
