A simple pullover based on the traditional Norwegian Fana sweater. It has horizonal stripes with dots in them and bands of colorwork stars at the cuffs, shoulder height, and around the hem. The neckline is unshaped; the sweater doesn’t have a front or back.

The instructions are in the form of a diagram with measurements in centimeters and some very general instructions. A chart is provided for the colorwork. (See the instructions for the sweater on p. 39 for more construction details.)

Needle size and yardage not provided.

pp. 45-46; the Norwegian sweater is described by the diagram on the left.
