Notes

As I really like stranded knitting this was a perfect project for a warm and cosy sweater. Knit in FairAlpaca DK it came out beautiful.
If you know stranded colorwork it is easy to knit but I would not recommend it to any beginner.

Thank you @tincanknits for let me be part of this testknit

Ich liebe mehrfarbiges Stricken, deshalb war dieser Sweater das perfekte Projekt. Gestrickt in FairAlpaka DK sieht er klasse aus.
Wenn man mit dem mehrfarbigen Stricken vertraut ist, ist er einfach zu stricken, einem Anfänger würde ich ihn nicht empfehlen.
Danke tincanknits dass ich diese tolle Anleitung testen durfte

Never will forget this Photoshooting on August 3, at 36°C with this beautiful but WARM Sweater in 100% alpaca
