Introduktion

Colours make you happy and add energy.
Energy that is needed to such an extent just where winter is ending and spring is springing up.
The sweater here is knitted from the bottom up, with a relaxed fit.
The body and sleeves are knitted in a pattern according to the diagram in the contrasting colours and the main colour. You only knit with two colours at the time.
This is the perfect knit if you want to try an all over colourwork knit for the first time.
