Sotra Pullover is a classic men’s pullover, worked in our soft Merino, which is wonderfully warm and gentle against the skin. Sotra features narrow stripes at the top combined with broader stripes on the lower part. The design has a great fit that suits everyone.

How to knit
Sotra Pullover is worked bottom up in stocking stitch with stripes. Body and sleeves are worked separately, then joined for working the yoke with raglan decreases.
