Omorika Sweater is a classic design with a simple silhouette. It features dropped shoulders that give a loose and boxy shape.Worked from the top down, you can easily adjust the length while knitting to make it suit your body.
The stranded pattern is worked from the right side only, so this design is a good project for a knitter without much experience with stranded knitting. Omorika sweater is designed as a short and boxy sweater with.

I choose a needle 0.5mm larger when working the stranded pattern to maintain the same gauge as when working in stockinette stitch. It is different from knitter to knitter whether or not your gauge changes when you’re knitting with more than one color

18 sts x 24rows in stockinette stitch on a 5 mm needle = 10 x 10 cm 4 x 4 inches after wash and blocking
