This sweater I made for good friends and fellow Vikings how just had a beautifull daughter. It made a very appropriate gift. a second babysweater was made in the exact same way and again as a gift for a new born. Making this sweater a number of pictures were made. |
The first picture shows how the sweater was set up on the loom. The treads that will become the sleeves are attached to the 2 extra ropes. (altough here I used rods, instead of rope) |
When braiding the sleeves and you reach the point where the sleeves and body touch, you keep on braiding. This will attache the sleeves to the body without seems. |
The neckline has been created the same way as the neckline of the larger sweater. You simply make s split in the middle of the sprang. |
I feel that especially a baby sweater needs a little motive a little detail with a high cutefactor. I used holes an sticks to make a pattern including little flowers and a pattern of holes on the sleeves.. |
And here the endresult worn but the proud owner Renee |
Renee’s sweater no longer fitts her. After Mara was born, the sweater was returned to us and as you can see in the picture, Mara looked totaly cute in it. |
