FO no. 6, 2005, Klaralund
Finished! Mini-Klaralund is done! My 10 yo is very happy about it, the colors and the shape - but complains about the SCRATCHING!!
She's sort of sensitive to that - but having a longsleeved top underneath will solve that problem, I'm sure. And I know Silk Garden gets abit better scratch-wise after a couple of gentle washings.
So here they are - my two babys:

details:
yarn: Noro silk garden shade #8, 50 g 7 1/2 skeins
needls: 5 mm circular, bamboo
pattern source: C.T. Hamilton book 2
model: Klaralund
modifications: made an xs-size by substracting from size s; the amount of stitches between size s and m
+ seamed the back edges together 4 cm to avoid the sleeves of sliding down over the shoulders.
a couple of more pictures:


Now I also want one ;)

Beautiful Klaralund! Is your daughter shy? ;-)
I love the new sweaters that you are knitting! Especially Ribbluse. What a cool sweater.
I guess your starting a new project when the last one is done, didn't work out ;-) I'm trying that myself. I hope I can do it. It is hard to do. |  |

how gorgeous is your daughter. you've done a fantastic job on klaralund....i am sure she will wear it to death.
yes silk garden can be scratchy, but try washing it in hair conditioner. it might make a difference. |  |
