A blue, hand knitted dress was made for me when I was a baby, 62 years ago. My mother took care of the dress and gave it to me when our first daughter was born. Both our daughters, Ingrid now 31 and Marta now 24, have used the old dress and I kept taking care of it. Now our first granddaughter, little Vida, is born, after two grandsons. The old dress is becoming too fragile to wear and I descried to see if I could make a new one, figuring out the pattern just by studying the old one.
I found the perfect yarn, I found needles, I started to count stitches and many, many hours later....... a new dress was born.
The dress has got its own name, "skrukjlets blåkjole/blue dress". And when skrukjlet means? Well, I tell the whole story in my podcast :-)
