Knitting kit for Easy Peasy Basic Sweater in Önling No 1, sustainable merino wool and angora.
Easy Peasy is Önling's new collection of knitted basics, in classic, Nordic design, with simple patterns written in a beginner-friendly language, without abbreviations. This is our version of a basic sweater with a circular yoke, knitted from the top down. The fit of the sweater is slightly ’oversize’, i.e. with a positive ease of approx. 5 cm / 2 inches. The design is a little bit cropped with normal armhole height and long sleeves. The sweater that you can vary as you please – with short sleeves, longer body, light yarn, thick yarn – with tips and details that let you adapt the sweater to the perfect fit and look for you. See the product images for inspiration and different possibilities.
In this kit, we knit in our bestseller yarn Önling No 1, merino wool and angora – sustainably produced and super soft.

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.
