Knitting pattern for Easy Peasy Basic Sweater
Easy Peasy is Önling's new collection of knitted basics, in classic, Nordic design, with simple patterns written in a beginner-friendly language, without abbreviations. This is our version of a basic sweater with a circular yoke, knitted from the top down. The fit of the sweater is slightly ’oversize’, i.e. with a positive ease of approx. 5 cm / 2 inches. The design is a little bit cropped with normal armhole height and long sleeves. The sweater that you can vary as you please – with short sleeves, longer body, light yarn, thick yarn – with tips and details that let you adapt the sweater to the perfect fit and look for you. See the product images for inspiration and different possibilities.
The sweater is designed our bestseller yarn Önling No 1, merino wool and angora – sustainably produced and super soft. If this is your first knitting project, we have put together a beginners-box, with needles, stitch markers and yarn to get started on this sweater. It is also available in a knitting kit, where you get yarn and pattern. See both in related products below
