Hark
Hark pattern is a traditional Icelandic wool sweater pattern (Lopapeysa). Hark is knitted with Álafosslopi which makes it thick, warm and super cozy for the fall and winter.
The sweater is knitted from the bottom up in the round.

Gauge
10x10cm = 13 sts and 18 rows on 6mm needles.
Circular needles: 7mm and 6mm, 40 and 60/80 cm (depending on your size)
Double-pointed needles: 7mm and 6mm
Note that the pattern is knitted in the round, so it‘s good to knit the swatch in the round as well.
NOTE: I knit quite tightly so you may need to use a smaller needle size. I recommend knitting a swatch to test the tension.
This pattern has slim fit and a shorter body length, if you prefer a wider fit you should consider sizing.
