Longitudinal Striped Sweater

This knitting pattern is in Swedish.

Ränder på Längden-Sweater is knitted from the bottom up in a 4 pur, 4 intur rib pattern. The sleeves are knitted by picking up stitches along the armhole and knitting in the round on a small circular needle or with double-pointed needles. Finally, a double ribbing is knitted at the neckline. Ränder på Längden-Sweater is thus almost assembly-free.
