Language Danish Swedish Norwegian German

Estrid sweater is knitted top down with raglan increases in a 2 k/2 p rib pattern. The body is finished with an 8 cm slit where it is knitted back and forth. The sleeves are knitted extra long so that a wide turn-up can be made. The Estrid sweater is a slightly short model, so the body stops at the hip. Remember to add extra yarn if you want a longer model.

Knit a swatch that you either steam or wash and block to check the knitting tension before you start knitting the actual sweater.

The pattern will be sent as a PDF file to your email after purchase.
