Knitting kit for Brick mens sweater in garter/slip stitch pattern
Classic mens sweater with round neck and slip stitch pattern on front piece and sleeves.
The back and front piece is worked in one piece which starts and ends in the left side seam. Stitches are picked up along the armhole and the sleeve is worked back and forth from the shoulder down. The sleeve length is easily adjusted.
Finally a ribbed edge is worked which is folded towards the wrong side of the work whereby the yarn ends from the color changes are hidden - without any fastening.
The pattern is a mix of garter stitch and slip stitch. The sweater is worked with only one color at a time.
The knitting kit contains: Yarn for the selected size and a pattern.
The pattern is a PDF file. Immediately after purchase you will be able to download the pattern directly from the purchase confirmation page. You will also receive an e-mail with a link to your pattern, and the pattern will be available here at the site via your personal account - so remember to create an account :-) Read more about digital knitting patterns here.

ABOUT PATTERNS FROM ÖNLING
In 95% of all kits from Önling, you get a digital pattern and yarn when you buy a kit. Read more about how to get hold of your digital knitting pattern here.
In very few cases, however, we provide a printed pattern rather than a digital one:
- When you buy a kit for ALL designs from PetiteKnit's, you will receive a printed, pattern together with your yarn, as we are unfortunately not allowed to sell Petite Knits' patterns digitally.
- When you buy a kit for a design from selected books (e.g. Helga Isager), you sometimes have to buy the book separately, in cases where the patterns are not released to be sold separately. It will always be clearly described in the product title, with for example "xx kit, excluding pattern", when the pattern is not included.
- All patterns from Isager are delivered as a printed pattern, as we do not have access to sell these digitally. You will receive your pattern along with your yarn shipment.
Wool can last for years, but it requires good care. Washing is tough on your woolen garments and in general wool needs to be washed much less than other materials as it has a self-cleaning effect.
