Knitting pattern for Saga ll by Hanne Falkenberg

Saga II is a graceful basic sweater with longe sleeve and a round collar.

The fine slip stitch pattern on both front and back, and the evenly colored sleeves give the sweater a bit of edge, while being fitting for almost everyting.

The front and back are worked in one piece which begins and ends along the right side seam. The pieces are joined under the arm hole. The sleeves are worked from the armhole and down. 

You only knit with one color at a time.
