Ruska
This design is available in FINNISH for free on the Novita website. (The not updated version!) link text
You can support my designing work by purchasing the pattern.
I designed the Ruska Sweater (the more rusty red version) with a competition in mind. The Finnish yarn brand Novita was looking for designs to celebrate 50 years of their most popular yarn, Seitsemän Veljestä.
I chose to go with a classic design that is unisex and timeless, maybe a bit traditional too. It definitely pays homage to all those yoke sweaters that came before!
I hope you enjoy knitting this sweater as much as I did!
