Easy Peasy Sweater with Turtleneck

Easy Peasy is Önling’s collection of knitted basics, in a classic, Nordic design, with simple patterns written in a beginner-friendly language, without abbreviations.

This design is our take on a basic sweater with set-in sleeves and turtleneck. The idea is to create a fully classic, Nordic model, and the pattern has been written in an uncomplicated, beginner-friendly language, with no abbreviations.

This is a sweater that you can vary as you wish, with short sleeves, short neckband, longer body, light yarn, thick yarn, with tips and details that allow you to adapt the design to fit you perfectly.
The sweater is designed to have a positive ease of approx. 5-10 cm / 2-4 inches, i.e. slightly oversize. It features a somewhat short body, normal-size armholes, and long sleeves.

The sweater is made in our favorite yarn, Önling No 1, which is perfect for a basic sweater, making it warm, soft, and light. It can also be knitted in Önling No 3, 100% organic heavy merino wool.

Designed by Katrine Hannibal for Önling.

Recommended circular needles sizes 4 and 5 mm / US 6 and 8, 80 cm / 32 inches long.
Double-pointed needles sizes 4 and 5 mm / US 6 and 8, unless you prefer to use the Magic Loop method to work the sleeves.

1 stitch marker.

Gauge
18 stitches and 24 rows/rounds of stockinette on needle size 5 mm / US 8 = 10 x 10 cm / 4 x 4 inches.

Procedure
The sweater is worked in the round from the bottom
up. The body is worked in stockinette to the armholes, and the stitches are then divided into front and back, which are finished separately. Stitches for the sleeves are picked up at the armholes, and the sleeves are worked, in the round, from the body towards the cuffs, to allow easy adjusting the sleeve length. Finally, the roll neck is worked.
