Description

Grüner jacket is a soft and warm cardigan, worked with double thread on thick needles. It has a short and wide fit, deep pockets, a folded hem at the neckline, V-neck and moreover, a zipper instead of buttons. It is worked bottom up; the sleeves are picked up around the armhole openings and worked to desired length. 

Zipper:
The jacket is designed to fit the length of the zipper +/- a few centimetres. It is not recommended to buy a zipper that differs greatly from the length given above. Depending on the zipper, the jacket can be knitted a little longer or shorter before the V-neck slant begins. You can find a zipper with a ring here.

Colour:
The pictured jacket is worked in Sandnes Børstet alpakka, col. 9575 and Sandnes Peer Gynt, col. 9572.

Size guide:
The jacket is designed to be worn with approx. 25-30 cm positive ease. The jacket has a wide cut and should fit loosely to the body, perfect for the wide and short fit.
