Wonderful pattern - now the second time I’ve made this jumper. Very quickly worked up, and despite the yarn weight the shaping makes this a flattering jumper.

Project mods : worked arms in larger size and for another inch - I like longer arms. Added the two colour bands on bottom row and on sleeves - just for a flash of colour and knitting interest.

Worked the second one up in the same yarn but different colours to the first.

The yarn in it’s coned form it doesn’t look very oiled, but it really does need to be washed.

Work a large swatch and check row gauge - mine grew significantly after blocking (The short, unfitting unblocked jumper grew 3 inches after washing)

This yarn has been rebranded over the years, I have put a couple of the brands here so it appears on the various yarn/project suggestion pages.

My other Strokkur (http://www.ravelry.com/projects/zathrag/strokkur) worked in the same yarn.
