“A timeless cardigan with a traditional Nordic expression that can be styled for both business and soft day off looks.
The cardigan has a boxy body with narrow sleeves, which suits most people. The body is knitted bottom-up in a structured pattern, while the stockinette sleeves are knitted from top to bottom. The cozy, soft pockets complete the look”

The sleeves are worked in stockinette sts from the armhole towards the lower rib.
The pockets are worked directly onto the fronts of the cardigan and the sides of the pockets are closed by grafting the to the garment.
