Ilia Sweater
Ilia Sweater (Norwegian and English)
Knitting pattern by Thea M
The Ilia Sweater is worked bottom up and finished with decorative picot edges. A delicate eyelet pattern framed by cables is worked down the centre front. The body is divided into front and back, which are joined at the shoulders using mattress stitch. The sleeves are worked from the top down and finished with the same picot edge. Finally, a long ribbed neckband is worked and folded double to the inside.
