Forår No 6 by Augustins for Hillesvåg

This pattern may be given out to customers free when they purchase the yarn for it.

The sweater is knitted bottom-up, first in the round, and then back and forth whilst making the front- and back piece of the yoke. Throughout the whole work, the sweater is knitted following a series of charts, to create its laced and cabled structure. The upper part of the yoke, as well as the high neckline, is knitted in rib, and to shape the shoulders, German Short Rows are used.
