PATTERN IN BOTH NORWEGIAN AND ENGLISH

ENGLISH:
Bergliot is a quick- knitted project. The bee’s body is knitted top down, and the wings are knitted by picking up stitches at the bee’s back. The legs, arms, and antennae are knitted as i-cords.

I recommend you knit with the «Magic Loop» technique. There are several good videos to find on YouTube, if needed.

The gauge varies based on which yarn you decide to knit with. The original yarn used for the pattern is Double Sunday from Sandnes Garn (light worsted). However, you can easily choose other yarn qualities. Be aware that the amount of yarn needed for the pattern can vary according to which yarn quality you knit with. Choose from the yarn you have at home!

NORWEGIAN:
Bergliot er en kjappstrikka og liten bamse. Bien strikkes ovenfra og ned hvor det plukkes opp masker til bein, følehorn og vinger. Prosjektet strikkes ved hjelp av magic loop teknikk og settpinner (jeg anbefaler å lære teknikken via youtube hvis du er usikker).

Bamsen kan strikkes med en rekke ulike garntyper. Bruk det du har av restegarn! Strikkefastheten kan variere. Det viktigste er at maskebildet blir tett nok til at bamsen kan fylles med vatt.
