Femund cozy sweater (digital pattern) by Linka Neumann –

Hello dear knitters and dog lovers!

I have been honored to create a collection for the Femundløpet in connection with the World Dog Sledding Championships 2025! This collection contains sweaters and small knitwear. I hope you enjoy the collection and that the garments will keep you warm on many adventures in the years to come. In the patterns you can choose what kind of dog you want to wear the sweater, because this is not just a sweater for people with competition dogs, but for everyone who likes to take their dog on a walk. Enjoy knitting!

Greetings Linka Neumann @linka.neumann

Most people knit tighter on patterns than they do when they knit plain stockinette. I have therefore included in the pattern that you should go up half a needle size when you knit the pattern. Knitting strength varies from person to person and always knit a test piece before you start.
