This sweater came to be during a very special voyage… I took a 12 day cruise along the Norwegian coast on a line called Hurtigruten. It was an unforgettable time of exploration, and admiring incredible views, but we also had terrible weather, which meant I quickly ran out of projects to knit. Inspired by the outstanding (and noticeably more elaborate) Norwegian colorwork around me, and with the only yarn I had with me, I decided to cast on a simple sweater. What’s special about it? The fit. 
Enjoy a simple raglan sweater that TRULY fits.
Hurtigruten is worked seamlessly from the top-down.
