Edith's Romper
The Little Edith’s romper has finally got
a big sister with long legs, and even though the small rompers are incredibly
cute, it is even more practical when rompers have long legs. The popular cable
pattern from the earlier romper pattern continues now all the way down the legs
and create a unique twist to a rather simple romper. The romper can actually be
worn all year round and is designed to fit both girls and boys. The romper is
created with a slightly longer leg, so that it can be worn for quite some time.
The sustainable alpaca wool will only get better from year to year, so the
romper is a perfect heirloom, which can be given from child to child. In the
booklet, you can find both instructions for the new romper as well as the
original romper. Furthermore, you get an instruction for a matching hair band,
which is knitted with the same cable pattern as the rompers. Happy knitting!
Yours, Rikke Ørum
