Information
The Elgr Sweater is an exquisitely soft and colourful sweater featuring a striking colourwork design inspired by the Elgr rune from the old Norse alphabet. It is knitted in Viking Alpaca Bris and Viking Alpaca Bris Multi from the bottom up with seamless raglan shaping. The pattern includes 7 sizes, and the sample shown is size M.
The design combines two colourwork charts that flow seamlessly from the body and sleeves into the yoke. The airy alpaca blend creates a lightweight, warm and comfortable sweater with a timeless Scandinavian look. The pattern is suitable for knitters with some experience of stranded colourwork and raglan shaping.
The pattern is available in Norwegian, English, Danish, Swedish and German.
