Frieda Pullover
This pattern is available in English - the German version will be uploaded within the next few days.
Frieda is a Norwegian girl’s name and means “beautiful”.
Frieda features a Norwegian inspired stranded color pattern around the shoulders which is also be repeated at the bottom of the ¾ length sleeves and can be inserted at the bottom of the body as well.
The pattern features two different sleeve options (3/4 length or long) and two different body options (regular fitting pullover or an A-line shaped longer version with a shirt-tail finish with the back section that is slightly longer than the front section).
Norwegian pullovers are so beautiful with their stranded color work, but they tend to be knit out of thick yarn and thus are warm. However, Frieda is worked in sock yarn, so that this beautiful pullover can be worn throughout the year.
