Norwegian pattern: Published in the magazine: Bladet Garn

English pattern: Test Knit will begin in January for a release in mid February.

Ravna is an historic name from northern Norway, her charisma is given to this a-line pullover with a longer flowing shirt tail back. A cable medallion adorns the spine which is crowned by a high garter stitch collar. All the sides are marked by a strong garter stitch edge presence. Ravna is knitted in a divine hand dyed shade from Værbitt called Little Parsley based on a childrens’ rhyme on Sølje Pelsull from Hillesvåg Ullvarefabrikk.
