Easy Peasy Basic Sweater
Easy Peasy is Önling’s new series of basic sweaters of a classic, Nordic design and patterns written in an uncomplicated, beginner-friendly language, with no abbreviations or cryptic ‘codes’.
This design is our take on a basic, circular-yoke sweater worked from the top down. The fit of the sweater is ‘normal’, i.e. with a positive ease of approx. 5 cm / 2 inches.
The design is short-bodied with normal armhole height and long sleeves ending in rib-stitch cuffs. It can be fitted to your needs, e.g. 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.
