Hryggir KIT
From € 147,42
Hryggir is a top-down yoke sweater featuring a beautiful lace pattern in the yoke with striking edges – hryggir in Icelandic. Its cropped A-line shape and balloon sleeves are achieved simply by changing needle size and yarn weight. A few well-placed short rows make the back longer and the sleeves more interesting. The pattern was first published in Laine Magazine Issue 06 together with an interview with me. I added more sizes to the single pattern.
The kit includes enough wool (Gilitrutt and Love Story) as well as a project bag.

DESIGNER: HELENE MAGNUSSON
Hryggir is yoke lace sweater knitted from the topdown with a lace yoke. It was designed for Laine magazine Issue 06. You start knitting the lacy yoke with 1 Gilitrutt and block it before dividing for body and sleeves. They are knitted first with 1 Gilitrutt and 1 Love Story together, then 1 Gilitrutt and 2 Love Story together and finally 2 Gilitrutt together, while gradually changing needle size and shifting colors. This gives the sweater its A-line shape and drop sleeves, without any increases needed. The sweater is cropped at eth front and longer at the back, but it’s very easy to lengthen it: just knit more rounds!
