This is one of those sweaters you see and you immediately ask yourself “wait, what stitch pattern is that made with” and, looking up, you go “that’s colourwork all right, but wait…”. A piece out of the ordinary, this sweater features a fun stitch pattern in bright yellow and a stretch of reverse stranded colourwork, where the strands that are usually left on the wrong side now appear on the right side. A fun and slightly challenging knit!

This pattern is published in the Winter 2019 issue of Novita Magazine. It is available for magazine subscribers only, until the next issue is released in January 2020, after which it will be available for free in English, Swedish and Finnish.
