Information
The Ty Sweater is a colourful raglan sweater inspired by the Norse rune Ty. It is worked from the bottom up with raglan shaping and combines several DROPS yarns together with Viking Kid-Silk to create a light, soft and luxurious fabric. The pattern is available in sizes XS to XXL, and the sweater shown in the pictures is size S.
The distinctive stranded pattern and beautiful colour transitions give the sweater a striking and vibrant appearance, while the combination of mohair, alpaca and merino wool creates a lightweight yet warm garment. The Ty Sweater is equally suited to mountain walks, everyday wear and relaxed weekends, making it a standout piece wherever you wear it. The pattern is suitable for knitters with some experience of stranded colourwork and raglan construction.
The pattern is available in Norwegian, English, German, Danish and Swedish.
