There’s something magical about reindeer, winter days and the cosy feeling of wearing a handmade sweater.

Inspired by the charm of Nordic winters and the timeless beauty of traditional colourwork, this new sweater was designed to bring a little touch of winter magic to your wardrobe.

This sweater is worked seamlessly from the top down. First the stranded yoke is worked, then short rows are added to shape the back of the shoulders. The body and sleeves are separated and worked in the round.
As each body is unique, please remember that the pattern serves as a guide, so feel free to modify it to fit your measurements
