The thin Version of the Melrakki Sweater

The Melrakki Sweater - Icelandic Style Sweater . The sweater is knit bottom-up. Start by knitting the body and both sleeves up to the yoke. The underarm stitches of the body and the sleeves are transferred to pieces of scrap yarn or stitch holders and the remaining stitches of the body and the sleeves are combined on a circular knitting needle to form the yoke which is shaped by simple decreases until the neckline stitches are cast off. The underarm stitches on the body and the sleeves are grafted together by the Kitchener stitch.

About Melrakki :

The Melrakki Sweater is designed for our winter and spring Mjallarshiba Kennel photography of us and our dogs . Melrakki is the old Norse and Icelandic name of the arctic fox or white fox living in Iceland. Melrakki can be roughly translated to “little dog of the rocks”. The Shiba Inu , a ancient Japanese dog breed we started to breed with the goal to introduce it to Iceland is DNA technically closest related dog breed to the wolf however no day passes by when people do not compare our Shibas to little foxes .Melrakki was the perfect name for this sweater.
