Scandinavian knitting patterns, made to be worn
Anette is a Swedish textile designer who spent more than twenty years designing in Australia before returning home to Sweden. Her knitwear keeps to simple shapes and soft texture – cables, lace, drop stitch and plain stocking stitch – so the finished piece is one you reach for again and again. Start with the Meja Feel Good Sweater #183, a relaxed jumper in stocking stitch, or the Pia Cable Lace Roll Neck #168 if you want cables and lace.
From beginner to advanced

Knit it in the yarn from the photo
Many patterns are written for one of Anette's own wool-blend yarns – Snö, Scandi Soft XL or Scandi Wool – and the product page then shows how many packs you need for your size. Not sure how much to buy? Read How Much Yarn Do I Need for a Jumper? and Best Yarn for Knitting a Jumper.
