The Luna Sweater is a classic sweater, with some super cute and feminine details. The sweater is worked from the top down using the contiguous method, so you start by making increases for the shoulder, then for the little puff sleeve and finally for the armhole. The neckband is knitted from picked up stitches along the neckline and the sleeves are made with decreases and increases around the ribbing.

Sizes: XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL

Luna Sweateren er en klassisk sweater, med nogle super fine og feminine detaljer. Sweateren strikkes oppefra og ned hvor der først laves udtagninger til skulderen, herefter til det lille pufærme og til sidst til ærmegabet. Halsens ribkant strikkes ud fra opsamlede masker, mens ærmerne afsluttes med ind- og udtagninger omkring ribkanten.
