Description
Knitting pattern for Gudrun, Faroese Sweater by Katrine Hannibal
Gudrun is a modern interpretation of a Faroese sweater. We have given the classic fair-isle pattern on the yoke a new twist, which – together with the boxy shape and deep armholes – give the sweater a modern look.
The pattern is a PDF file. Immediately after purchase you will be able to download the pattern directly from the purchase confirmation page.
