Procedure: The sweater is knitted top down in one piece and is sewing-free. Begin by casting on stitches at the centre of the back, then knit back and forth in a wide rib pattern and with cables - first over the left and then over the right shoulder. Pick up stitches along the front edges of the shoulders and the back. Then continue to knit back and forth in the wide rib pattern with cables, while simultaneously knitting increases for the sleeves and neck. Join the work in the round by casting on stitches on the front and knit the yoke in the round on circular needle. The body and sleeves are then divided and knitted separately. The cables continue down the sleeves, which are shaped with a neat decrease pattern before finished with a ribbed edge. Finally, pick up stitches along the neckline and knit the neckband in rib stitch.

ABOUT PATTERNS FROM ÖNLING
In 95% of all kits from Önling, you get a digital pattern and yarn when you buy a knitting kit. Read more about how to get hold of your digital knitting pattern here.
In some cases, however, you will not receive a pattern as part of your order:
If you buy a Yarn kit, you will only receive yarn for the design in question. Yarn kits are only sold for selected designs from external designers, where we do not have the right to sell the pattern. When a kit is sold without pattern, you can always see it in the header, which will say (excl pattern) in the header.
In very few cases, however, we provide a printed pattern rather than a digital one:
- For a select, few designs from PetiteKnit, we will add a printed pattern to the parcel - but for most PetiteKnit designs, you will not receive a pattern, as they are mainly sold as yarn kits (excl pattern). In these cases you will always be able to see it in the header, where it says (excl pattern).
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.
