The pattern includes 6 sizes from XS to XXL. The sample shown in the photographs is knitted in size M.
The simple two colour pattern gives the sweater a timeless Nordic look that is equally suitable for outdoor adventures and everyday wear. The sweater is worked seamlessly in the round with wide raglan shaping for a comfortable fit. The pattern is suitable for knitters with some experience of raglan shaping and stranded colourwork.
