Downloadable pattern: Kaarna sweater (designer Ronja Hakalehto)
The boxy Kaarna sweater is knitted top-down, partly using stranded colourwork, first flat, then in the round. The worsted yarn is soft and pleasant to knit with.
The Kaarna sweater pattern was published in the Rakkaat kuviot & Pentik magazine, inspired by Pentik's home textiles and ceramics.
