Knitting pattern for Smilla's Sleeves by Anne Ventzel
Smilla´s Sleeves is a generous and feminine shrug with a simple cable pattern, which is used across many of Anne Ventzels designs. Snuggle up in this cozy alternative to a cardigan or use it on top of a dress when you are going out.
Choose which size shrug to knit based on the back width measurement. Please note that your size across the shoulders can be quite different from, for example, your bust measurement, so you may need to choose a different size than you normally do. Try on a cardigan from your wardrobe and imagining it without fronts. This, together with the measurements given in the pattern, can help you choose sizes.
At Önling you can choose between two yarn kits for Smilla's Sleeves. Work it in Önling No 1 for a lovely and fluffy result or knit it in an ultra soft and luxurious version in cashmere yarn held together with silk mohair.
The pattern is available in English, German, Norwegian and Swedish.
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.

WASHING INSTRUCTIONS
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.

Washing instructions for your knitwearWool 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. Often it is enough to hang your woolen sweater / garment outside in the humid weather or bring it with you into the bathroom, when you take a long, hot shower - the steam will often be enough to freshen it up it and remove any unwanted odors.
Specifically for knitwear knitted in Önling's Everyday Kit
Neither Önling No 12 nor No 13, is pre-washed when you receive it on cones. You get the best result if you soak your finished knitted garment in lukewarm water for approx. 2 hours. Then wash the garment as you would otherwise with washing detergent for wool, either by hand or on a wool program in your washing machine. Dry it by laying it flat.
Specifically for knitwear knitted in Önling's Silk kit
As the Silk Kit from Önling contains 3 different qualities (linen, wool and silk), we recommend that you always wash your silk sweater / garment by hand, to avoid it changing shape or appearance during wash. The three qualities will react differently to water, temperatures, etc. Önling can not take responsibility for the result if you wash your silk sweater in the washing machine. Your garment made from the silk kit should NOT be spun or tumble dried. Instead, dry it by laying it flat.
