The Lyngen pullover is a lightly-textured, top-down sweater made to feature that perfect variegated mohair or aran-weight yarn in your stash. The colors and pattern draw inspiration from the mountain lakes of the Lyngen Alps in Norway which turn into magical ice rinks in the winter.

Lyngen is knit from the top down with raglan increases and German short rows to raise the back with a folded collar and matching 1x1 ribbing and cuffs.

Note that the texture is charted only.
