Livø Sweater is a wonderful year-round sweater with a comfortable, spacious fit. Livø is knitted in slip-stitch pattern that creates a beautiful textured pattern – and it’s a fun technique to work with. The sweater is knitted in Tweed and Blow, which together create a rich and vibrant play of colours.

How to knit it
Livø Sweater is worked from the top down in slip-stitch pattern and with a European shoulder. First the upper part of the back is worked, then the upper part of the front sections down to the underarms, after which the sections are joined. The body is worked in the round. The sleeves are worked in the round from the top down. The neck is worked last. All hems are ribbed.
