Terho :: colorwork sweater knitting pattern

Terho

€12.50

Deriving its name from the Finnish word for acorn, Terho is a comfortable colorwork sweater with oak leaves and hanging acorns on the round yoke.


This DK-weight sweater is worked in one piece from the top down. Terho features a round neckline embellished with an i-cord, waist shaping, and short rows to lower the back yoke. Two rows of acorns decorate the hem. Sleeve cuffs and the hip-length hem are finished with ribbing.


The pattern is written with both metric and US terminology. Only charted instructions are given for the colorwork patterns.
