Vinterskov (da: winter forest) is a pullover designed to keep you warm and cosy whenever the sun is far away. It has extra-long sleeves for that irresistible sweater-paw look, seamless construction, a very casual fit, and an easy colourwork yoke.

The pullover draws heavily upon Nordic knitting traditions: the yoke construction is a standard Icelandic yoke, the colourwork design mixes the Norwegian lusekofte tradition with a motif borrowed by another Norwegian knitting tradition, the Selbu mitten. A small-batch Danish yarn only adds to this pullover’s Nordic roots.

The pattern includes a detailed schematic and colourwork charts, as well as tips on how to select the right size.
