The Space Between Sweater combines the timeless elegance of intricate cabling with the modern comfort of a high, cosy turtleneck. Designed to be both a meditative knit and a statement piece, this sweater features a rich texture that flows seamlessly from the collar down.

The Pattern has been tech edited and test-knitted by multiple knitters, both in English and Icelandic.

Gauge
The cables pull the knitting together so on average when measuring both Cables and Rib the gauge is 19 sts x 30 rows for 10x10 cm /4x4 in.
When measuring rib only it is 17 sts & 30 rows = 10x10cm/4x4” after washing and blocking. The ribbing should be flat when measured.

The pattern comes in 8 sizes, from 88cm to 152 cm in width of the garment.

Size 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 8
