My first attempt at a Nordic sweater

This sweater is my first attempt at a Nordic sweater – most of the patterns are from an old Norwegian knitting book my father-in-law has kindly given me and the pattern on the body is from an old Swedish pattern.

This is my first, but surly not the last, attempt at a Norwegian inspired sweater.

At that time it took me great effort to make the red shoes look nice – too many stitches between the dancing feet, but is my small way of paying respect to all the ladies who were wore the red shoes literally or in spirit.
