Pokhara Sweater (digital pattern)

The Pokharagenser is an oversized sweater with dropped shoulders, knitted bottom-up. This garment is quick to knit on 6 mm needles in Vams yarn from Rauma Garn (100% Norwegian wool). The Pokharagenser is knitted in the round until the pattern is complete. The back and front are then knitted flat before the shoulders are seamed and the hood is knitted. The hood is knitted flat and seamed at the top. Stitches are picked up for the button placket. Finally, stitches are picked up around the armholes for the sleeves.

The Pokharagenser should have a positive ease of 10-15 cm. Measure around your bust and add 10-15 cm to find your size.
