Ruska
I originally designed the Ruska Sweater (the 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!
Please note, this is the updated pattern that features the original Tubular Cast On and Cast Off, short rows and the charts are centered in all sizes.
I hope you enjoy knitting this sweater as much as I did!
