Holger Baby Set - Paper

This recipe is in Norwegian.

Holger Baby Set consists of a sweater and pants.

The sweater is knitted from the top down. The yoke and body are knitted with stripes, while the sleeves and neckline are knitted solid in their own colors. First, the back piece is knitted, and then the shoulders are knitted separately back and forth on circular needles. These are gathered at the front to form the front piece. The front and back piece are then gathered to form the body, which is knitted in the round on circular needles. The sleeves are knitted from open sts along the sleeve opening. Finally, the folded neckline of the neck is knitted from open sts.

The trousers are knitted from the top down. They are knitted higher at the back with shortened needles (reversible needles). Along the waistband of the trousers, a narrow drawstring is knitted to form a cord.
