Note : The pattern for the Nora Sweater consists of two PDF files.
Nora Sweater is a sweater with a Nordic-inspired patterned border on the yoke. The sweater is knitted in the round, top down, with raglan increases and German turns both on the yoke and at the bottom of the body, which makes the sweater's neck higher and the sweater slightly longer in the back. The sweater has a loose fit.
Size guide
Nora Sweater should have a positive ease of movement of approx. 12-16 cm in relation to your chest measurement. Size XXS (XS) S (M) L (XL) 2XL (3XL) 4XL corresponds to a chest measurement of approx. 70-76 (76-82) 82-88 (88-94) 94- 100 (100-106) 106-112 (112-118) 118-124 cm. This means that if your chest measurement is, for example, 90 cm, you should knit size M, where the width of the sweater is 106 cm. Remember that these measurements only apply if the knitting tension is observed. If you want a tighter-fitting sweater, I would recommend going down one size in relation to your chest measurement.
