NORO’S SELF_STRIPING Viola yarn, with its colourway of soft spring-like shades, creates a striking fabric on this design from Sanna Mård Castman. The long-line raglan sweater has an elegant pattern of cables worked on the front and sleeves. The cables flow neatly from the bottom ribbing right up into the stand-up collar. This is shaped using short rows, and the front section is overlapped with the back and stitched in place at the left side.
