Elvas Violet Vibe
Design Lisa Renner
This sweater is worked top-down. It has a lot of elasticity due to the rib-pattern. We love to knit this one too long for a start. Then there will be plenty of opportunety to grow in the sweater and thus wear it for a long periode of time.
Use Prairie from Madelinetosh if you can get it. Or in Denmark: use Poem from Hesselgarn or use any other soft and good lace yarn.
Sizes 0 (3, 6, 12, 24) month (3, 4, 6, 8) years.

Because of the rib pattern the chest measures are very fexible. You can count a +/- 10 to 15 cm.
So choose the age of your child and know this sweater will fit because of the elasticity in the rib pattern.
