Picking blueberries is a very common autumn activity for Norwegians. We gather them, save them for the winter, and enjoy nature’s own vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. There’s nothing better than a fresh, warm blueberry pie.

This sweater is designed with the same spirit in mind—for forest walks, cool autumn days, and enjoying nature. The sweater is knitted from the bottom up, and the beautifully flowing A-line hem gives it a relaxed feel.

The measurements in this pattern is only correct if the given gauge is achieved. The sweater should have a positive ease from 5 to 10 cm.

The patterns in this category require that you have experience with and feel confident in using the basic knitting techniques, as the patterns contain more advanced techniques for example for casting on, picking up and knitting stitches or working short rows.

You may need to keep track of multiple elements at the same time – for example you may need to work a charted pattern while working shaping at the same time.
