They are all beautiful but I'd love to have the pattern of number 3! I'm in rainy Norway, sitting with my leg on a chair, kitting a sweater in multicoloured yarn with a round yoke, but nothing as fancy as your beautiful ones!!

WOW! What a wonderful gift.. Know they will treasure them.
I just cannot imagine only 4 or 5 days according to size. You are very talented. I made my daughter a sweater years ago (VBG- ended up making 4 sleeves as first two were knitted one at a time and apparently/obviously I was not good enough to keep my tension even.So then knitted the second 2 at same time on circular needles) hadn't thought of that in years. Thank you for sharing you beautiful work, and congratulation on a job wonderful done.

Thank you - Yes had to sit all day and knit sweaters because these are supposed to go to Norway 19 May and while I knitted like crazy, I could do nothing in embroidery, I usually knit just at night while I watch TV and then I knit a sweater in 10 days

Dear Sigrun, these are just amazing. I love them all, I don't wear jumpers much here in Newcastle. I only have 1 woollen cardigan and it's all done in different wools in squares of black, white and greys! I just love these patterns and they look so intricate. I see you have only taken 5 days for the adult ones! You are an excellent knitter. What brand of wool have you used? Love Chris

sigrun by sigrun 12 May 2013

Thank you Chris - yes 5 days with each sweater - I use Icelandic wool - I have a wool sweater, but I do not use it much, because I got to feel it too hot.

Well you must be from the same part of the world as I am. In Ireland we always call them jumpers. Have got used to calling them sweaters now in Canada.
