TALITHA Vest for Children
This design is a truly Scandinavian fusion between a Norwegian all over tree pattern and a Swedish Bohus yoke featuring white Danish Amager doves.
The pattern is available in Danish or English in 4 different sizes for children ages 6-13.
This is not a difficult project to make since it is worked in the round and there are no seams to sew! If you have knitted color stranding before this pattern will be considered easy, and if you are new to color stranding this is a good ‘beginners project’ because only two colors are used at a time (except for a few rows in the yoke, but they are far up in the pattern when experience in working with two colors has been gained).
The pattern contains 2 color photographs and 2 color diagrams showing all the patterns on the vest.We used Louet Gems Sport, similar sport yarn that fits gauge can be used.
