I started to make my very first woolen jumper. It is just a sample one, not made for my self. The purpose of this project was to learn the scales of each part of the jumper. As you can see the top part is not quite the right sized, so I had to took it apart and fix it to look more normal sized.

The front side of the jumper is 2/3 of an adult woolen jumper. Im not sure for what aged kid it fits, but certainly for very small one. Any ideas?

This specific jumper is not made for kids though, it is not made from the right wool. As far as I have understood kids need their special wool that is not as itchy as the wool used for adults.

When I have enough time I will make a pullover for myself but from cotton.

These socks I made for a friend of mine as a birthday present. I used Slovenian yarn which was slightly different from Finnish seitsemän veljestä yarn that I usually use. The ball of wool I got was the same size as the one in Finland, but the difference was that it was 1/3 thicker than the one I was used to. So instead of 150g I got 100 grams. It also mixed up my usual numbers of starting loops in the sock, so after a while of knitting I realised that this is way too big sock for a woman with this number of loops per knitting layer. So I had to took it apart for couple of times before I finally got the right sized sock.

I used 44 loops per knitted layer. If anyone else will ever come across with similar type of wool which is 33% thicker than normally used, now they will know the scale of new loops. It doesn't go along with the percentage of 33%, then it will be too small for normal sized lady foot (38/39). For example if I usually use 48 loops, it won't be 33% less loops (=33 loops). The more closer number of loops to be used is 44 that I used to reach the same size of shoe size. It took a while to find it out so I decided to write it down if anyone else has a trouble with the same issue.

The wool I used is called Nika. It is 20% wool and 80% acryl. It can be washed in a washing machine in 30 decrees of Celsius.
