Knitting pattern for Rikke Sweater
Knit the Rikke Sweater, a classic must-have sweater designed in a fine rib pattern with an integrated lace pattern.
The attention to detail and fit is second to none and with a slightly high neck, beautiful raglan and built-in lace pattern, this will be a must-have in your wardrobe! 👌 The sweater has an oversize fit that will expand quite a lot after washing and blocking. The positive ease is 15-20 cm - if you want a sweater that fits a little tighter, go down a size.
We knit Rikke Sweater in one strand of Önling No 1, which is a gorgeous merino wool and angora yarn that is perfect for sweaters. This is a sweater that you'll want to move into and never take off again 💖
