Rømø Sweater

**RØMØ SWEATER** The island of Rømø is a gem in the heart of the Wadden Sea on Denmark's south-east coast where endless sandy beaches, seaweed and dunes are beautifully reflected in the surface of the clear water. This fine "painting" is captured in stitches and colours on the beautiful and harmonious yoke of the Rømø sweater. **Sizes** Sizes: S (M) L (XL) 2XL (3XL) Fits a chest circumference: 80-86 (86-94) 94-102 (102-110) 110-124 (124-134) cm Chest circumference: 92 (98) 106 (115) 128 (138) cm Sleeve length: 45 (46) 46 (47) 47 (46) cm Total length: 54 (57) 60 (61) 63 (63) cm (measured centre back excl. neckline and without rounded hem) **Yarn** Jensen Yarn, 100% wool, 250m/100g by Isager Silk Mohair, 75% super kid mohair and 25% silk, 212m/25g by Isager Main colour 400 (450) 500 (550) 600 (650) g Jensen Yarn in col. 86 (brown) 100 (125) 125 (150) 150 (175) g Silk Mohair in col. 34 (brown) Contrasting colours A: 50 (50) 50 (50) 100 (100) g Jensen Yarn in col. 0 (Natural White) A: 25 (25) 25 (25) 25 (25) g Silk Mohair in col. 0, (Natural White) B: 50 (50) 50 (50) 50 (50) g Jensen Yarn in col. 7s (Taube) B: 25 (25) 25 (25) 25 (25) g Silk Mohair in col. 63 (Taube) C: B:25 (25) 25 (25) 25 (25) g Jensen Yarn in col. 46s (Aqua) C: 25 (25) 25 (25) 25 (25) g Silk Mohair in col. 67 (Aqua) NOTE – Each colour is worked with 1 thread Jensen Yarn and 1 thread Silk mohair held together throughout the complete garment.
