Information
The Grønningen Sweater is a raglan sweater knitted with two strands of DROPS Kid-Silk and Flora held together, along with one strand of DROPS Merino Extra Fine. It is worked from the bottom up and is available in 7 sizes from XS to 3XL. Grønningen is named after a lighthouse near Kristiansand in Norway, and the pattern is inspired by the many small lighthouse lights hidden within the design.
The beautifully coordinated colours create a vibrant and distinctive look, while the seamless raglan construction provides a comfortable fit. 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.
