Icy Cold

Icy Cold by Schibot Garne - knitting pattern in German and English.

ABOUT THIS PATTERN

Icy Cold is a warm sweater knitted with thick wool and can therefore be finished quickly despite the Fair Isle pattern.

The yoke sweater is knitted from top to bottom. The Fair Isle pattern may look complicated, but it is easy to memorize and easy to handle.

All you need are three colours of my Merino 100% ARAN yarn base. I recommend using solid colours, which offer a clear contrast to each other, so that the pattern stands out well.

When you download the pattern, you will receive both the German and the English PDF files. Each is 11 DIN A 4 pages long and leads you step by step with detailed instructions to the finished sweater.

Enjoy knitting your Icy Cold Sweater ♥
