Hraglandi — Knitting pattern

Original design by: Védís Jónsdóttir

Hraglandi (“Sharp Snow Showers”) is a classic lopapeysa with a striking all‑around yoke. The body and sleeves are worked in the round from the lower edges to the underarms, then joined to work the charted yoke. The pattern provides shorter/longer options for both body and sleeves so you can tune the fit. Finish with a neat folded neckband and block to measurements.
