Drawing inspiration from both sportswear and traditional knits, this sweater (The Skier) is one for the more experienced knitter. The stripes are worked in intarsia and short rows are employed for shaping. The Novita Pohjola yarn gives the sweater a shimmering look.

This pattern is published in the Winter 2019 issue of Novita Magazine. It is available for magazine subscribers only, until the next issue is released in January 2020, after which it will be available for free in English, Swedish and Finnish.
