Rikke Sweater No 2 by Rikke Jönsson, No 3 + silk mohair kit

Kit with pattern and yarn

Knitting kit for Rikke Sweater No 2 in Önling No 3 + silk mohair (2 strands)

Knitting kit for the beautiful Rikke Sweater No 2, which is a natural extension of the previous designs by Rikke Jönsson, but with its own unique expression. Rikke Sweater No 2 has an oversized look and the beautiful rib pattern that characterizes the Rikke series adorns the shoulders in the most elegant way. The rib pattern continues down the sleeves, creating a beautiful and harmonious design.

Here we knit Rikke Sweater No 2 in two strands held together - one strand Önling No 3, our heavy organic 100% merino wool, and one strand exquisite silk mohair. This results in a wonderfully thick and fluffy sweater.

Language: The pattern is available in English

The knitting kit contains: Yarn for the selected size and color and a digital pattern

Procedure:
The sweater is first worked back and forth and then in the round, from the top down. You start by knitting the two shoulder panels separately. These are then joined, and short rows are worked across the back and front to ensure a good fit. The yoke is shaped with increases along the sleeves. After, the work is divided, and the sleeves and body are finished separately. The sleeves are worked in the round.

Please Note:
The price of the yarn kit is calculated based on the amount of yarn included, which is the amount we have used to knit the design according to the above measurements. Should you need more yarn, additional yarn can be purchased at regular prices by placing an order and state lot number in the comment box at checkout. All designs have been thoroughly calculated and tested.

This knitting kit contains yarn and a digital patten, which will be available for download immediately after purchase.

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.
