RECIPE

The Honey romper is knitted from the bottom up in a lovely honey structure. The rib is knitted in twisted stitches which gives a nice, distinctive stitch definition. To get the finest possible transition from the rib, bind off with Italian bind off, while at the same time placing the stitches for the harness on a resting thread. Finally, the harness is knitted in rib as on the body. The romper should be somewhat roomy.

Feel free to knit a sample before you start, to check that the knitting tension is correct. Other yarns that may be suitable are, for example, Tynn Merinoull, Alpakka Silke and Tynn Line from Sandnes Garn, or other yarns that give a knitting tension of 27/10.
