Meet Endre the Dragon

dragon6

Endre has been patiently waiting for me to finish his dragon jacket since May... And here it is!
He is trying to put on a scary face, but he is just too cute ;)

I had to rip the whole body and sleeves because it got too small. And I think I could have knitted it one size bigger this second time too... I don't think it will fit him more than this season.

But he loves it, and I might knit him a new one next spring in cotton so he can wear it all summer ;)

Pattern: I've combined the Steggie kids's dinosaur cardigan and Dragesweater patterns.
Yarn: Järbo Garn Raggi Solid, about 600 g of green #1512 and a bit orange #1504. And leftovers in black and white.
Needles: 3,5 & 4 mm.
Hook: 3,5 mm

    He enjoys his jacket! Great knitting!
    He is also very patient while you are shooting - I know my kids hate that part!

    han er jo så søt i tøffe jakka si at man vil jo bare smaske ham opp!
    Imponert at du ikke parkerte hele prosjektet når du måtte rippe opp sååå mye.

    Så utrolig kul jakke!
    Tror jeg må strikke en slik, har mest lyst på en slik selv, men det kan kanskje bli litt i meste laget ;)

    Endre så i alle fall kjempe fornøyd ut =D Og gjør seg bra som dragemodell ;)
