Hitra Pullover is a beautiful high-neck design with raglan sleeves. It’s a knitting project suitable for the intermediate knitter, as you only need the more basic knitting techniques to complete it successfully. The pullover is worked in a combination of Wool Cotton and Kid Mohair, giving it a wonderfully soft feel and a lovely play of colours.

How to knit it
Hitra Pullover is worked top down in stocking stitch using the two different yarns held together. First the neck is worked, after which the yoke is shaped with raglan increases. The work is then divided, and body and sleeves are worked separately.
