LINDA

LINDA
The Linda sweater was made to order for my daughter. She wanted a sweater that was suitable for outdoor activities, and the earthy color scheme was on her wish list. The patterns are light, and by changing the colors, the shirt can have different looks, from autumn to spring!
There are three different options for the collar. You can choose the one that suits you best!

The yarn used is Léttlopi, so the sweater is also suitable for indoor use or under an outer jacket. The Linda sweater is shaped at the waist, but you can leave the waist shaping off if necessary.
Like many Icelandic knits, the sleeves are knitted first, then the body and finally the yoke, which connects them into a finished garment. You can adjust the height of the collar to your needs. The shirt uses simple techniques, so you can enjoy the flow of knitting. With this pattern, you can easily succeed!

MATERIALS, SIZES AND ACCESSORIES

Ístex Léttlopi 50 g / 100 m 80 cm circular needles 4.5 mm or, depending on your handwriting, 4.5 mm double pointed needles. More detailed materials can be found in the accompanying images.

Note. The pattern has a gauge of 18 sts / 10 cm, ensure the correct size by knitting in closed stocking stitch. Note: Be careful with the gauge, as a difference of even a couple of stitches will affect not only the width of the piece but also the height of the yoke!
