This pattern was first found in issue 5 of Laine Magazine.

Scandinavian Spring is a light, airy cardigan that combines two bases: one with merino and silk and the other with kid mohair and silk. Even though the pattern looks rather complicated, it’s easy and relaxing to knit – and an utter joy to wear.
