And here is yet another new project for the baby! (Christian's littlebrother's first child).
I simply couldn't help myself when I saw the pattern for this little Norwegian sweater. It's from Hjertegarn and so is the yarn. And since the baby is due in the middle of October, then a real winter pattern will do great, I think.
I'm making it in cotton and the brown yarn is a little bit tweedy - not much, but it's there.
Now it's time for the front and the back to be knitted. The sweater has 2 buttons on each shoulder, so hopefully that will help, when the little one has to get it on and of.
Knitting such a tiny size always makes me remember when my own children were babies. There are so many fine memories to enjoy about both of them, so that is what I often do with this particular sweater.

Such beautiful knitting, I love these colors ...
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Barbara. :)) I just love them too - however I did wonder a bit whether the brown one would fit a little baby girl, if that's what they get.
ReplyDeleteBut I decided to go with it anyway. :))
hello dear Ulla. i just love the color you chose for the sweater. my daughter is going to have her first baby soon and how i wish i could find some time off and do some knitting forthe baby. So far, i managed to knit a little hat, but there are so many beautiful patterns to knit for little ones. and so not worry about the color. it could fit either a gorl or boy.

Hi Monique,
ReplyDeletehow nice that you are here. :))
It must be so wonderful to become a grandmother in a short time. It sounds sweet with a little hat for the baby - I think that babies always need hats to warm their little ears. (Here in Denmark babies take naps in their prams outside, so hats are definitely needed). :))
And I'm sure that you have knitted so much love into the hat.
I'm happy that you like the color for the little sweater I'm making. As I come along, I find it more and more suitable for both boys and girls.
Do tell when you have got your grandchild. I will keep an eye on your blog. :))
hugs to you too,
Ulla X
