Icelandic Sweater on the Most Beautiful Girl in the World


My lovely daughter got her senior pictures taken recently. I brought along my most recent knitted project and she agreed to model it for me.  This is something she would not normally wear. In fact I made it for myself and I'm much taller than her. It's a little big for her but she looks as cute as can be. She's the most beautiful model ever!

The design came from a pattern call Afmaeli that I found for free on Ravelry. It's a basic Icelandic pattern that I modified into a long sweater that buttons up. The pattern was in the round so I had to do some math to get it right. I added a button band and big black buttons.

I love your version of the Afmaeli. Did you knit it in the round and steek it?I've been looking for a long sweater like this for ages. Not sure what math you had to do to change it but would love to know. Wonderful job!
