Streger sweater is a short, loosely fit colorwork raglan sweater that is worked from the top down with the option of adjusting the length of sleeves and body. It has a wide neck that can be worked in rib or with an I-cord, colorwork at body and sleeves and long ribbed hem and sleeve cuffs.

Colorwork
The colorwork is inspired by a Danish song for children: “Vil du, vil du” where you are supposed to draw 30 dashes at a whiteboard while getting the rhythm/beat in the song.
Streger = dashes.
Vil du, vil du = Will you, will you. https://youtu.be/D58NCycCTlE
