Pattern

Álfar is a digital knitting pattern from Ístex for an Icelandic hooded cardigan with a colorful yoke. The pattern is knitted in Léttlopi and is suitable for those who want to knit a warm cardigan with a classic Icelandic feel and practical details.

The cardigan is knitted in the round with steeks down the front before it is cut open and the front bands are attached. Then a spacious hood is knitted, and the cardigan is finished with classic toggle buttons and a twisted cord.
