This is a printed pattern in Swedish.
Moby Sweater Mini is knitted from the top down using textured and cable knitting. First, the back is knitted with shortened rows to shape the shoulder slope. Then, stitches are picked up for the shoulders and then joined at the front to knit the front piece. The front piece and back piece are then joined under the armhole to continue knitting the body, which is knitted straight down. The sleeves are knitted in the round on double pointed needles or with the Magic Loop technique. Finally, a rib edge is knitted at the neck, which is folded double and knitted down.
Make a swatch to determine what needle size you need to use to match the gauge - note that this can vary from yarn to yarn. Be sure to wash the swatch before measuring as textured knits can "grow" after washing.
