Hopi Polar (digital pattern)

This is a 2-in-1 pattern. You get a pattern for a sweater with a low and high neck, as well as the Hopi Polar Hood. The Hopi Polar Hood has a hood and extra length in the body. Pattern in Norwegian and English.

The Hopi pattern was first published in my second book, "Wilderness Sweaters 2." I have now created a thick version for colder days. The sweater is knitted in Vams yarn, but you can also use other yarns such as Troll and Blåne from Hillesvåg Ullvarefabrikk. Many have asked for yarn alternatives for everyday use, and I have therefore included these in the pattern.
The sweater is knitted in the round, from the bottom up. The body and sleeves are knitted separately before being joined on one needle when the yoke is to be knitted. The Hopi Polar is a thick and cozy sweater that can be knitted as a low-neck or high-neck sweater, or as a polar hood version. The Hopi Polar Hood has a hood and extra body length so you are dressed for extra cold days. The Hopi Polar should have a positive ease of between 10-15 cm. Measure around your chest and add 10-15 cm to the garment's bust circumference to find your size.
