    About

    I love Isabell Kraemer designs and when I saw this new pattern I just had to knit it. A very straightforward and enjoyable knit as usual with Isabell’s patterns. All yarn was from my stash. I’m very happy with the finished jumper and will definitely knit it again. Very comfortable to wear.

    Pattern

    Heimathafen

    This pattern can be found here:

    Yarns

    Needles & Hooks

    • Circular 3.25mm (US 3) 100cm
    • Circular 3.50mm (US 4) 100cm
    • Circular 3.75mm (US 5) 100cm

    Measurements

    Notes: I had swatched for a different pattern that required 3.75mm needles and got the required gauge for this pattern although should have been 3.25mm needles so went with a size 3 to finish at approximately 40” chest. I made a few modifications - knitted full length sleeves and added 1 x 1 rib to the cuffs and hem instead of an icord. Because my contrast yarn was a little thicker I went down a needle size for the contrast stripes.

    Yarn used - Shaela Heather 1000m, Valley Tweed 110m

        Thank you Nora. I’ve knitted a few of Isabell’s designs and they are my favourite things to wear. Great patterns.

      Lovely jumper Lynn and you’ve made it beautifully. 🥰 I keep admiring Isabell Kraemer’s designs. I made one for my granddaughter but have yet to make one for myself. It’s hard to decide which one!

        Thank you Helen. I particularly enjoyed making this one but as you say all of her designs are great. I don’t think you could choose a bad one!
