Fossveien Junior is the childrens version of The Fossveien Sweater. It is knit top down in the round. It features colorwork, structure and cables. You start by knitting the collar and a symmetric yoke, before shaping the sweater by doing short rows in the back. Then you separate body and sleeves, which are worked separately in the round.
