Information
The Lahelle Sweater is a classic raglan sweater knitted in Viking Wool. It is worked from the bottom up in four colours and features decorative colourwork on the yoke and cuffs. The pattern includes 7 sizes, and the sample shown in the photographs is size M.
The traditional colourwork combined with raglan shaping creates a timeless Scandinavian design suitable for both everyday wear and outdoor adventures. Viking Wool is a soft and durable 100% Highland merino wool yarn that creates a warm and comfortable sweater with excellent stitch definition. The pattern is suitable for knitters with some experience of raglan shaping and stranded colourwork.
The pattern is available in Norwegian, English, German, Danish and Swedish.

Knitting the Lahelle sweater
The Lahelle sweater is knitted in the round, which means that instead of knitting back and forth in rows, you’ll be working in continuous circles to create a seamless garment. Knitting in the round is an efficient technique that eliminates the need for side seams, giving the jumper a smooth, even finish.
