The Aarburg Bomber is short with long sleeves and a large collar, which is either round, with "polo"-flaps, or long pointed flaps. It draws inspiration from both the 1940s and the 1990s and has two sleeve versions, either straight or with a small puff effect. It’s worked back and forth bottom up, starting with the body, front pieces and the back, which are then grafted together. Hereafter the button placket, collar and sleeves are worked.

The Tårnby sweater is a simple raglan sweater, knitted in the round top down. First the neckline is worked, then the yoke, the bodice and in the end the sleeves.
