Most people knit tighter on the pattern than they do when knitting plain stockinette stitch. I have therefore included in the pattern that you should go up half a needle size when knitting the pattern. Knitting tension varies from person to person, so always knit a test swatch before you start.
Yarn
Luna, Vidde and/or Varde from Hillesvåg Ullvarefabrikk, Lettlopi from Istex, Fivel from Rauma or Viking wool from Vikinggarn.
Amount of yarn
This sweater is perfect for using up leftover yarn. You can also use the same color in multiple places to make a version with fewer colors. For example, you can use the same color for the base color and pattern color 3. You can also use the same color on pattern colors 1 and 6 or 2 and 5 if you want a version with fewer colors.
