Pattern for Ola pattern sweater 2 / OlaMønster genser 2 - English version
The sweater is worked bottom up on a circular needle. First, you work the body, thereafter both sleeves and finally you place all pieces on one long circular needle to work the yoke with raglan decreases. The sleeves are designed extra-long, so that the sweater gets its own unique touch. In this pattern the complete sweater is worked with double thread; 1 thread Highland wool and 1 thread silk mohair. Both main and pattern colour are worked with 1 thread Highland wool. With the silk mohair yarn, you have 1 colour for the main colour and 2 colours for the pattern.
I have worked the sweater on needle size 5 mm to achieve an airy look. This way, the sweater and pattern get my desired look.
