Knitting pattern for Dagfrid Sweater

An Icelandic sweater in our own soft, delicious yarn Önling No 1, a high-quality merino wool and angora. A lot of purl stitches in the pattern create a nice structure and exciting three-dimensional experience. A new interpretation of an Icelandic sweater that you’ll move into and love, because it is beautiful, soft, and wonderful to wear. The sweater can also be knitted in our ultra soft Önling No 3, a 100% organic merino wool yarn.

Gauge 21 sts and 28 rows in stocking st and pattern on needle size 4 mm / US 7 = 10 x 10 cm

IMPORTANT! It is important that the gauge is the same, both for patterned and plain stockinette. Many knitters will need to go up or down 1-2 needle sizes when switching to multicolored knitting, to maintain the same gauge.

Procedure
The sweater is worked in the round, from the top down. The yoke is knitted with increases in the pattern. Hereafter the work is divided, and both sleeves and body are finished separately.
