Knitting pattern for ”No Frills sweater” by Petiteknit.
Petiteknit knocked over the knitting world a few years ago when she released No Frills – a simple sweater that is fun to knit and the you always need in your wardrobe. We have knitted it in our sustainable yarn Önling No 1, 75 % merino wool and 25% angora, and it’s absolutely delicate. It has that soft look a bit like mohair with the Angora mix.
You could knit at slightly larger needles to give the yarn more air, but note that the sweater will then turn out bigger.
The pattern is a PDF file that we will manually send to you by e-mail. If you have a Ravelry account, the pattern will also be added to you Ravelry library.

Wool can last for years, but it requires good care. Washing is tough on your woolen garments and in general wool needs to be washed much less than other materials as it has a self-cleaning effect. Often it is enough to hang your woolen sweater / garment outside in the humid weather or bring it with you into the bathroom, when you take a long, hot shower - the steam will often be enough to freshen it up it and remove any unwanted odors.
Specifically for knitwear knitted in Önling's Everyday Kit
Neither Önling No 12 nor No 13, is pre-washed when you receive it on cones. You get the best result if you soak your finished knitted garment in lukewarm water for approx. 2 hours. Then wash the garment as you would otherwise with washing detergent for wool, either by hand or on a wool program in your washing machine. Dry it by laying it flat.
Specifically for knitwear knitted in Önling's Silk kit
As the Silk Kit from Önling contains 3 different qualities (linen, wool and silk), we recommend that you always wash your silk sweater / garment by hand, to avoid it changing shape or appearance during wash. The three qualities will react differently to water, temperatures, etc. Önling can not take responsibility for the result if you wash your silk sweater in the washing machine. Your garment made from the silk kit should NOT be spun or tumble dried. Instead, dry it by laying it flat.
