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 ;)

Hi Karen, I love your Klaralund! It`s wonderful !!!

I like knitting too since some days, hehe, and I am not so good as you are all here - but I love it, and I am sure, I will learn it!

I wish you a wonderful day,
a lot of new ideas :),
and a nice weekend!

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.
