Knitting pattern for Rosir, Icelandic sweater
Katrine loves old English roses, and when her daughter was born in 2000, she lived with her family in a house with over 100 different types of roses. The daughter was named Rose and this sweater is designed with Rose in mind. The sweater has an Icelandic-inspired design, which is why it has been named Rosir (meaning roses in Icelandic).
The pattern is a reinterpretation of roses and purl stitches in the pattern create an interesting three-dimensional structure.
The sweater is designed to be slightly oversized, with approx. 5 cm positive ease, so there is room for several layers underneath when you go out into nature. It is worked in the round from top to bottom.
