Pattern:
This turtleneck sweater is inspired by nordic style with a pattern that is knit over the entire sweater. The sweater is worked top down. You start by knitting the first part of the back piece, then picking up stitches for the shoulder. Then the neck and front piece is created. The front- and back piece are assembled and the body is knit in the round. The sleeves are picked up in the armhole and are worked downwards. The turtleneck is picked up stitches which are worked rib.
