New woolen jumper design in the making :blush: It is going to be a raglan jumper, constructed top down. The pattern is by just-duit Podcast on Youtube. Thorsten came up with a great way to calculate your unique size and the needed raglan measurements. Check out his free calculator on his website: http://www.just-duit.work/raglan-rechner/ I am using my new, 100% rustic wool, in a leap frog green colour, as well as a lighter version of green. The all organic wool was purchased from a german sheep farm called Finkhof. It is a german sheep farm with a shop at the farm and an online shop: https://finkhof.de/hofladen I am naming this new design/jumper the "Ivy Sweater"

Notes

Finished my new woolen raglan jumper, the “Ivy Sweater”. blush green_heart
It is knit top down, in 100% merino wool, purchased at #finkhof #finkhofwolle, Germany.
It has 2 stripes and a latvian braid. On the bottom I worked a little phantasy pattern. I crochet lace borders on the neckline and made a crochet detail on the neckline front part of the jumper, and added 4 wooden buttons.
On the sleeves I also crochet a border, with gaps to pull a string through.
The string I crochet by making a chain and added bobbles on each end. Lastly I made another crochet lace border on the hem of Ivy Sweater.
I love to make my knitwear up as I go, creating a unique piece, like an artist paints a picture. Painting with wool, so to speak. blush
