Notes

Doubled the yarn (update 2012: I think the structure is too thick. The next time I would not double the yarn!)

Fascinating color! Wikipedia writes this: Taupe ( /ˈtoʊp/) is a dark grayish-brown color. The word “taupe” derives from the Latin name for the European Mole, Talpa europaea.

After the first photos I crocheted a line for the placket (knappestolpen) to make it more solid.

Planning to replace these photos with better ones later…

The pattern is free and is called Babyslipover on the website femina.dk, but taken from the printed publication “Strikkemagasin” (strikkemagasin.no).
