Sisken from Mette Hvitved
Sisken is an entire collection consisting of several recipes in a combined pdf booklet of a total of 39 pages.

The booklet contains recipes for a women's sweater with a high or low neck (chest width sweater 88-132) and a women's cardigan (chest width cardigan 92-136) with 3 different diagrams that can be mixed crosswise between the different designs. There is also a recipe for a children's sweater (unisex size 4-12 years) so you can match well with your child or whoever you want.

In addition to sweaters/cardigans, there are also stocking patterns for both children and women with different diagrams. The stockings come in sizes 24-43. For the adult socks, there is a recipe for 3 different heel types so that the sock can be adapted to your foot.

Yarn
The entire booklet is knitted in yarn from Filcolana - but similar yarn with the same knitting strength can be used without problems.
Pernilla (knit strength 22/10) is used for sweaters/cardigans and Arwetta is used for socks (knit strength 28-30/10)

Yarn quantity:
3-8 keys of the base color Pernilla and less than 1 half key of each of the contrasting colors are used. In the recipe, under each design you can see the recommended amount for your size and the chart you choose

Guiding sticks
I recommend doing a knitting test to find just the right needle size. For the vast majority, you will have to use needles 3.5 mm or 4 mm to reach the knitting strength of 22/10 in Pernilla.
For the stockings, I recommend needles 2.5-3 mm, but again a knitting test is recommended. I myself use a short circular needle (23-25 ​​cm), but of course you can also use magic loop or double pointed needles
