Hello dear knitters and dog-loving children!
I have had the honor of creating a collection for the Femund Race in connection with the 2025 World Dog Sledding Championships! This collection includes sweaters and smaller knitted items. I hope you like the collection and that the garments will keep the child you’re knitting for warm for a long time. In the pattern, you can choose what kind of sleddog you want to have on the sweater. Happy knitting!
Best regards, Linka Neumann Linka Neumann
