Yarn package for the Alva Sweater by Liv Bjorholm Lyhne.

The Alva Sweater is knitted in a simple rib pattern and beautifully hugs the body. It has a close fit and a charming little collar. 

The rib pattern is quick and easy to knit. It is highly elastic and therefore extremely comfortable. The sweater looks much narrower while knitting, but its stretchy pattern allows it to fit beautifully. Please refer to the table with the recommended ease.

You knit your Alva Sweater seamlessly from the top down in the round with the beautiful Double Sunday from Sandnes Garn. This yarn is super soft and very comfortable; the pure merino wool is ideal for year-round wear—a true all-rounder! 

You can combine this beautiful sweater with virtually anything: a basic knitted garment you’ll want to wear every day!

Knit the Alva Sweater—it will accompany you throughout the year!
