Information
Bispegra Sweater is an ultra lightweight mohair sweater with a modern and feminine style. The elegant lace pattern across the front yoke and raglan lines creates a subtle statement, while the wide neckline and short sleeves make it ideal for everyday wear as well as special occasions.
This knitting kit includes yarn for your chosen size together with the knitting pattern. The sweater is knitted from the top down with raglan increases using DROPS Kid Silk. The top down construction makes it easy to customise the length, resulting in an exceptionally light and airy sweater.
The pattern is available in Norwegian, English, Danish, Swedish and German.

FROM TOP TO DOWN
Here you start with the neck, knit raglan and divide the work into sleeves and body when the raglan is finished. Then you knit the body first, then the sleeves.
