Information
The Reid Sweater knitted in Viking Alpaca Bris. It is worked from the bottom up, with the body knitted in the round before being divided into front and back pieces. The pattern includes 6 sizes from XS to XXL, and the sample shown in the photos is size M.
The Reid Sweater 2 is a classic design featuring double cables and a neat I-cord neckline. The longer version gives the sweater a timeless look, while Viking Alpaca Bris creates a lightweight, soft and warm garment. The sweater will stretch slightly with wear and become wider than the measurements given in the pattern. The pattern is suitable for knitters with some experience of cable knitting.
The pattern is available in Norwegian, English, German, Danish and Swedish.
