Pattern in English and Swedish.

When visiting the hometown of the magazine Laine, Tampere, and the biggest yarn fair in Finland, I saw this really cute sweater. I asked the girl wearing it if she had knitted it herself. But it turned out it was a vintage jumper, bought in a thrift shop. I made a mental note, and a quick sketch, and thought that I one day needed one for myself.

Tampere is worked from the top down and in the round, in one peice.
