Notes

This was one of my first sweaters on the knitting-machine.
I had discovered an old Empisal Knitmaster 100 with 5mm needle distance at the fleemarket and bought ist for 20 €.
So I worked the body parts with the raglan shaping on the machine and added the braided parts with hand-knitting.
I was not very happy with the ballet-neck so I made it narrower.

Unfortunately the yarn was not very good. There were always threads coming out and it was heavily itching. Therefore it was given to the used clothes collection for recycling.

The pictures are made with our old digital camera from 1997, one of the first digital cameras ever. I always borrowed it from an office to make my knitting pictures
