Information
The Torvefjorden Sweater is a classic and elegant raglan sweater featuring small cables, knitted from the top down with two strands of Dale Kidsilk Erle held together. The pattern is available in nine sizes, and the sweater shown in the pictures is knitted in size L.
The all over cable pattern creates a refined and timeless look, while the soft blend of mohair, silk and wool produces a lightweight, warm and comfortable garment. The sweater pairs equally well with jeans, skirts and dresses and can be worn throughout much of the year. The pattern is suitable for knitters with some experience of cables and raglan increases.
The pattern is available in Norwegian, English, German, Danish and Swedish.
