Snorri


This is Snorri. I started him right after christmas and finished in time for the cold Canadian winter. Luckily that winter hasn't been too cold so far, but Snorri is thick and warm.
Snorri was inspired by another Snorri, made for my brother and "like a warm thick woolen blanket." My Snorri isn't quite as thick. The woman in the little wool store assured me it would be okay to knit with size 7 needles, even though the pattern called for 5's.


Some details of the neck and front cables. The cables were fun and made the knitting go quickly.




And here's the inspiration Snorri. Shot in front of the Canadian blue fir tree in Veenendaal.
