The 5-year old needed a new kindergarten sweater for next winter. Used the chart I used for my <a href="http://tinkish.blogspot.no/2013/07/space-invadersmarius-babyteppe-for-st.html" target="_blank">Space Invaders Baby Blanket</a> (which is a modified mix of the traditional Norwegian pattern Marius and <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/cheese-attack" target="_blank">Arne & Carlos' Cheese Attack</a>). I decided to make a cardigan, so I have added a 9sts steek in the front. I decided to go for a raglan as I couldn't be bothered to modify the chart for knitting in the round, nor did I want to have to sew in the arms because of bulk and lazyness ;-).<br />
<br />
I am knitting on 3,25mm Chiagoo needles using Blackhill Højlandsuld (wool) from <a href="http://garnudsalg.dk/">Garnudsalg.dk</a>. I really like this yarn AND it is affordable - a winner! I am knitting with the following colors: Brandbil (red), Lys Indigo (light blue), Skifer (dark grey), and Kiwi (green)The Wandering Ladyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08915781035289501718noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3281616986060278209.post-49557893951710649962013-07-31T13:19:00.004+02:002013-07-31T13:22:40.625+02:00Space Invaders/Marius Baby blanket<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

blanket. I have been fascinated by the traditional Norwegian pattern
Marius for a while and I really wanted to knit a blanket using that
pattern. But, at the same time I have had Arne & Carlo's pattern for
Space Invader sweater sitting in my knit list for, like, forever, so it had to
be a mix of those two patterns.</div>
