You can buy the English manual directly from the designer *for guidance*

The sweater is knitted double-threaded with Isager Trio 2 and Isager Spinni, or 3-threaded with Trio 1 and Isager Spinni. As an alternative to the Spinni, you can also use the Alpaka 1 from Isager.

***
The pullover is worked in stockinette from the top down using the European shoulder construction. The back yoke is worked back and forth, and stitches for the shoulders and fronts are then picked up and worked over the shoulder to the bottom of the neckline. Then the back and the fronts are joined and worked in the round for the body, ending with twisted ribbing and a double hem. The sleeves are worked in the round from the shoulders to the wrists. The shawl collar, worked back and forth in twisted ribbing, finished the design.

The double hems are worked using only TRIO. They can look a little wavy as the are worked, but the blocking will sort that out.
