About the pattern
The Tide Sweater is knitted from the bottom up in three parts – two sleeves and one body. Both the sleeves and the body are first knitted with a ribbed border and continues with a two-colored pattern.
The sleeves are then placed together with the body on a circular needle and knitted together with raglan decreases towards the neck. The neck is finished with a ribbed collar which is folded in half.
