Information
The Kaun Sweater is a quick and easy to knit raglan sweater featuring wide stripes, worked with two strands of DROPS Brushed Alpaca Silk. It is knitted from the bottom up on large needles and is available in 9 sizes from XXS to 4XL. The sample shown in the photographs is size M and weighs only around 170 grams.
The bold stripes give the Kaun Sweater a modern and relaxed look, while the soft alpaca and silk blend creates a lightweight yet wonderfully warm garment. The sweater is worked seamlessly in the round without side seams for a smooth and even finish. The pattern is suitable for knitters with some experience of raglan construction and stocking stitch.
The pattern is available in Norwegian, English, German, Danish and Swedish.
