Knitting process:
The sweater is worked top down. First, stitches are cast on for the neckline, which is worked flat in the waffle structure with rib stitches on both sides of the work. Simultaneously, the top of the back is shaped using increase, followed by picking up stitches along the shoulders. The shoulders are then worked flat and one at a time to later be joined for the front by casting on stitches. The front and back are joined and the body is worked in the round in the waffle structure with ribbing in the sides. The sleeve stitches are then picked up in the arm hole and the sleeves are worked in the round in the waffle structure and concluded with a ribbed cuff. Finally, stitches are picked up along the neckline to be worked in rib stitch and bound off using Italian bind off.

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.
