This pattern is also available for purchase as part of the European Collection Part 2, which includes five sweaters and two hats.

Susaen is a top-down seamless yoke sweater that is knit in the round. There is a double folded ribbed neckline followed by a textured yoke featuring knit, purl and travelling stitches, inspired by motifs from the Danish nightshirt tradition. Once the textured yoke charts are completed, there are short rows across the back in order to raise the back neckline, creating a more comfortable fit. There are textured panels running down both sides of the body. There is optional waist and hip shaping to add feminine shape, and the hem and wrist cuffs are finished off with ribbing.
