The inspiration for this sweater comes from the artwork “Strikkekatten”, which captures a calm, whimsical moment with a knitting cat and a curious mouse on the back of the sofa. The artwork radiates patience, peace, and quiet coexistence.
The design is also available for adults as Vilma.

The sweater is knitted from the top down, with short
rows at the top of the yoke to shape the neckline. Raglan
increases are started simultaneously and continue
down along the yoke.
The work is then divided for the body and sleeves, and
these parts are finished separately.
Both the body and sleeves are knitted with colourwork
according to chart, and are finished with ribbed edges,
which are cast off using an Italian bind-off.
