We are delighted to present Copenhagen Sweater, designed by Astrid at the Atelier with the Wool Biches & Bûches Le Gros Lambswool in two colors. It is a cosy, oversized sweater — warm and comforting, with the little rustic touch we love so much. Its high neckline, long sleeves, and elegant stripes make it a timeless and elegant classic.

Copenhagen Sweater is also very well suited for knitters with less experience. Worked one color at a time, using large needles and thick yarn, it knits up quickly and is easy and enjoyable to handle.

Construction
Copenhagen sweater is knit top-down and in the round in stockinette stitch with a striped pattern. The neckline is shaped with short rows, and the edges are finished with twisted 1/1 ribbing.
