Knitted a present for my granddaughter. She loved it. I have knitted simple colourwork lately, but a pattern like this I had not tried for a very l o n g time.


The pattern is from a book by Linka Neumann called 'Villmarks Gensere'. There is an English edition as well, called Wilderness sweaters, vol.2

This is beautiful! Your finishes always look professional. I’m sure your granddaughter will stay very warm and think of you when she wears it.
I’m also sorry your home was invaded, but I’m glad you weren’t home when they came in. I hope you’re recovering well from your surgery. Always wish the best for you- ❤️Toogie

You are so right about the counting. The bears were a 36 repeat and I must admit I had to unravel twice in that section.
