April’s pattern of the month: An idea that became a failed school project, an idea that lived on and it chafed. Started over, looked for yarn, changed the design, changed the details. Started all over again. Then one day she was suddenly ready, Margit Sweater.
This is how Sara Stark, @Blackbirdknits on Instagram, describes her pattern Margit.
The sweater is knitted with several fun techniques, including shortened rows (German Shortrows) and Italian cast off.

Sara’s version of the Margit sweater is knitted in a lovely wool yarn, Allis DK from Fru Valborg.
Margit sweater finns i sju storlekar XS, S (M, L, XL) 2XL, 3XL och stickas uppifrån och ner med ett rill-mönster på
både ok, kropp och ärmar. Margit stickas uppifrån och ner och är stickad i ett DK- garn med sträckningen 250 m/100 g.
Sara har använt Fru Valborgs garn Allis DK, 250 m/100 g (50 % alpacka, 25 % lin och 25 % silke) men du kan givetvis sticka den i ett annat garn med samma sträckning/100 m.
