Norwegian Fjord Horse Sweater (digital pattern)

The Fjord Horse is Norway's national horse, and my favorite horse. I have tried to make the Norwegian Fjord sweater as nationally romantic as possible! I must admit that it is not entirely easy to knit. There are many long sections with three strands and long floats, so you must not be in a hurry when knitting this sweater. Enjoy your knitting! :D - See all yarn kits HERE
