Sirges Báidi 2–12 years is the children’s version of the Sirges sweater from my book Sápmi Strikk 2.

To preserve as much of the beautiful pattern as possible in the children’s version, I chose to knit the sweater in a finer yarn than the adult version featured in the book. I chose Sunday from Sandnes Garn, a soft, non-itchy yarn that is perfect for sensitive children’s skin.
