Jumper Hortensia

Jumper - „Hortensia”

I designed this classic Fair-Isle sweater for me, colour inspired by the beautiful hydrangeas in my garden.  This “jumper” received great recognition on my first trip to the Edinburgh Yarn Festival in 2016. The interest has motivated me to knit another model and write this pattern.

General information for construction

The jumper (body) is knitted in the rounds from the corrugated rib up to the shoulders in one piece. The neckline and the raglan shaping of body is knitted with steeks. The right and left sleeves are worked in single pieces in the round with the same raglan shaping steek as the body. All three parts are seamed together along the steeked openings thereafter.
