Product Description and Size Guide

Oversized silhouettes, cable stitches, and pure yarn define Haraboji, which will become a lifelong companion. You start by knitting the right sleeve, then continue up to the shoulder. Next, you knit the back and front pieces, then join the work and knit the left sleeve. The pattern includes both written instructions and diagrams.

When Karoline Skovgaard Bentsen was tasked with creating a pattern for Fremstrikk, it was the yarn that inspired her. She read articles about Fivel and Norwegian yarn, and concluded that the best way to highlight the yarn’s qualities was to use cables and textures. The pattern was named “Haraboji Cardigan,” which means “grandfather” in Korean, because it resembles a typical grandfather’s cardigan.
