Information
Bertes Sweater is a classic Nordic sweater with a timeless geometric colourwork pattern. Its clean, balanced design makes it perfect for everyday wear, weekends at the cabin, by the sea or out walking. The pattern looks especially striking in contrasting colours but is equally beautiful in many other colour combinations.
This knitting kit includes yarn for your chosen size together with the knitting pattern. The sweater is knitted from the bottom up with raglan shaping in Viking Alpaca Storm. The pattern is easy to follow and is best suited to knitters with some experience of stranded knitting.
The pattern is available in Norwegian, English, Danish, Swedish and German.
