Krasbäcken sweater is a top-down raglan sweater. It features short rows at the back neck to raise the neckline, and has a textured pattern of purl stitches, forming small ”dots”.
The pattern is inspired by the organic irregularity of nature – where liveliness and stillness exist side by side.
The name comes from a place in Sweden where, in the 1960s, a small cottage served as a family’s summer home.
