About pattern
The design is called Jakt, which is Norwegian for the English word Hunt. Both the colours and motifs are chosen from outdoor life themes.

The sweater is knitted bottom up, and with yoke. Ribbing is used for edges. The fit is meant to be loose. If adjusting the length of the sleeves or body, remember it will affect the amount of yarn.
