Information
The Støodden Sweater is knitted using House of Yarn Bæstmor, Date Night in Dublin. It features raglan shaping, and the pattern includes both a bottom up and a top down version. The pattern is available in 7 sizes from XS to 3XL, and the sweater shown in the images is size M.
The Støodden Sweater is a soft and cosy raglan sweater with a timeless, understated look. By alternating between the Rainbow Mix and Ocean Mix colourways, every sweater becomes unique. The blend of wool and alpaca creates a warm and comfortable garment that is equally suited for everyday wear, coastal walks and cooler days outdoors. The pattern is suitable for knitters with some experience of raglan construction.
The pattern is available in Norwegian and English.

You first knit a ball of 2001, then a ball of 2006, etc. No two sizes will be exactly the same.
FROM BOTTOM UP
Here you start with the body, knit the sleeves and join all the pieces together. Then you knit the raglan with the entire piece on the same needle and finish with the neckline.
FROM TOP TO DOWN
Here you start with the neck, knit raglan and divide the work into sleeves and body when the raglan is finished. Then you knit the body first, then the sleeves.
