Welcome back to our RU-vid channel, everyone!
It's your hosts, ARNE & CARLOS, and we are back with our white sweater. We've been hard at work redesigning and improving this sweater that's been a bit of a wardrobe challenge for us. From too-short sleeves to an uncomfortable high neck, we are still at it.
In this video, we'll take you through our journey of unraveling the old yarn, re-knitting new sleeves and cuffs, and transforming the sweater into something cozy and wearable. We discuss the quirks of its construction, including its unusual knitting technique and the challenge that we have faced along the way.
Despite the mismatched yarn colors and some unexpected decreases, we're determined to salvage this vintage find. Plus, we'll show you how the elasticity of knitwear works its magic, making adjustments to the neckline and discussing potential future alterations.

If you put a band of black patterning on the sleeves, to echo the front pattern, you will never notice the difference in the dye lots of the wool... a lot of work going into this...

So ingenious gentleman. Absolutely a wonderful concept to change an heirloom garment a give it a fresh new look. Beautiful guys.❤

You asked us to tell you about the projects we knit while watching - I am knitting a NORO cowl - it is my second one. Last fall while traveling in Oregon with my favorite Aunt I loaned my cowl to her because she was cold - and she loved it! So.....of course I have to knit her one to give her this Christmas! It is a very relaxing knit made even more enjoyable with your content! Thank you and Happy Spring! (I live in Reno and I am looking forward to meeting you in person in just a few weeks!!!!!)

Thank you guys for always having something of interest for everyday living, travel, common sense and humor. Luv the time it takes to give us a glimpse of your lives... from the rainy April morning here in eastern US watching the goats and sheep in the field that is greening up.

I love “it shrank in the closet”😂 Weird closet things happening here in the States also.

Hello from the US in Virginia. I love your draperies. The fabric is gorgeous!

@trufflesmom1 5 месяцев назад

Hello from Canada! Just found you two and am so happy to learn the ‘proper’ way of knitting. I am a Dane brought up here and learned to knit from my mother. When she had difficulty following English patterns I learned from a friend’s mother how to read them but in so doing had to learn the British way of knitting. Now I am returning to my roots and it is so much better. Have some catching up to do on your podcasts but looking forward to it and enjoying Carlos’ knitting and purling videos. ❤❤❤

The sweater is looking great. I much prefer the new neckline. I know it will be beautiful when completed. Have a wonderful week.! Hugs for Freja! ❤🤗😘

@debtemple7141 5 месяцев назад

Looks great! I don’t like working short rows. I only remember doing them on yoke sweaters back in the day, they were fine.

@d.austin3984 4 месяца назад

I love the sweater! Looks great on you Arne.

@helenabiesma5560 5 месяцев назад

it so cool to see that beautiful sweater - lovely pattern and keep at it

@chingachgook9718 5 месяцев назад

I respect that sweater's knitter! Note the stranded design that only exists in the sweater's center--a real thinking Maker.

@alisonsanderson1770 5 месяцев назад

Or you could be really funky and add a rainbow of colours for the sleeves!

@sabtuyahmashor5021 5 месяцев назад

Wow!!! Hi Arnie …hi Carlos.. ❤️great job!!!👍👍👍

@katmartinez3737 5 месяцев назад

Really nice sweater! I love the black and cream contrast. Looks good on you, Arne!

@carolekiernan296 5 месяцев назад

Such a great vintage sweater...and to be able wear it!

@carolfaber585 5 месяцев назад

I couldn’t stop looking at Arne’s hair after he took the sweater off! I had to go back to see what it looks like before he put the sweater on. Carlos, you needed to reach over and tousle it for him 😂 Fun project!

@andreamiller6200 5 месяцев назад

Wow, Arne, this re-worked sweater is so stylish when you try this on. Just love it and thrilled to see it!

@gingermolinero8386 5 месяцев назад

It must be amazing in Arne’s head, he is so creative. Please pet Freya for me

@KlingonPrincess 5 месяцев назад

Arne, you look very distinguished in that sweater. Good remake! 🌻🍄

@schnippischnappi4010 5 месяцев назад

I love to refurbish! I would love to see the arms in small black an white stripes. Those stripes are looking good to every other pattern.

@catherinemontrose2102 5 месяцев назад

Nice work! I'm currently making a sweater with yarn from my stash (old Patons Classic natural melange color) - it's a rustic Aran designed on the needles. But I didn't have enough yarn, so I reordered Natural melange color Patrons Classic - instead of cream, it's a very light grayish brown. So the sleeves and collar on the sweater are going to be a subtle contrast color. It doesn't matter!

@blasebaker 5 месяцев назад

Beautiful sweater. So happy to see you fix and save it.❤

@BeautifulOaks 5 месяцев назад

Wow, this refit for another maker’s sweater has received plenty of attention. I hope it receives plenty of use.

@karentoynton8948 5 месяцев назад

Love your curtains, very nice, hope your both well, thanks for today.

@thizizliz 5 месяцев назад

That is a gorgeous sweater - I'm looking forward to see how it finishes up after the washing. Also, this particular setting for SAKFAB is lovely. You chose that fabric well.

@nicolelafontaine1720 5 месяцев назад

Quite daring trying a swearter with both sleeves on double point needles !!! HAVE A GOOD WEEK !

@milesf7604 5 месяцев назад

How fabulous! You've inspired me to go back and fix some of my hand knits that weren't quite right rather than getting rid of them. Keep up the great work! 👏

@maryalgar8779 5 месяцев назад

Lovely sweater. Arne is so skilled to tackle this. It's looking great!

@irenemacleod5140 5 месяцев назад

Hi guys great sweater you can hardly tell the difference colours it will be nice and a very fun project I find the clothes do shrink lol take care see you again soon

@anne321 5 месяцев назад

Thanks guys this was a fascinating video. I do this with my sweaters when they show signs of wear & usually have to buy a ball or two of yarn to complete & of course it is never the same dye lot but hey at least it’s unique to me! Looking forward to your next post. Take care 💚💚✌️✌️

@stitchersdelight 5 месяцев назад

It looks really good , you were freaking me out trying it on with the needles clacking around ! I envisioned stitches flying everywhere !! Have a wonderful week

@viridiangreen8259 5 месяцев назад

The neckline looks great - one of your yarn balls looks closer in color to the sweater (may be my monitor) - looking forward to the reveal

@clonejones7955 5 месяцев назад

My favourite sweater is a vintage men's Nordic sweater that had been felted down to a women's small.Ive already reknitted the whole thing except for the yoke once with reclaimed yarn and it's due for another.Thats a great sweater!😁🇨🇦♥️

@Yazz2014 5 месяцев назад

That sweater is beautifully made and I absolutely love the short row collar, it gives it a professional look and also fits more naturally to our neck shape. You are doing a fantastic restoration job.

@Kayemwhy 5 месяцев назад

That pattern on the front is beautiful. I'm trying to understand what Arne was talking about the decreases on the sleeves and twisting. Can you go into details later on this please?

@tammihackley4349 5 месяцев назад

Love the pattern on sweater. Would love to have a chart of the colorwork pattern

Thanks for sharing guys. So amusing!

@AmandaH-ng8kf 5 месяцев назад

If I was worried about the new color on sleeve addition, I might try adding the black in stripes…would minimize the appearance of color difference.

@marilyn9155 5 месяцев назад

Sweater ‘ reno’ works great !!! Love it! Gorgeous pattern . Great work Arne ❤xx

@Kaila999 5 месяцев назад

I like the motif on that pullover. I think you should consider incorporating it into new designs, eg a cushion, cowl, etc. BTW I just took your Geitestrikk off the blocking mats and am wearing it! I purchased the kit in October 2022 in Tromsø Husfliden (I think) while on your coastal cruise.

@mmay4121 5 месяцев назад

How wonderful, you like Morris and co designs although I understand the Strawberry Thief, I think that’s the design on the curtains, was originally dark blue

@annabellavampirella 4 месяца назад

I love this. I would like to see more sweater surgery.

@victoriaguerin2851 15 дней назад

It might have helped to knit the sleeves in helical knitting, alternating the old and the new yarn with every row.

@susanteminsky1078 5 месяцев назад

So GOOD!!

@SJDJR 5 месяцев назад

Black sleeve bottoms would pop that sweater:) Just saying😊

@isabellawiseman4010 5 месяцев назад

What a beautiful sweater. The design on the front is beautiful. How often do you was your sweaters? 👍👍❤️❤️👋👋👋

@davidhensley76 5 месяцев назад

I heard a rumor that Arne is going to wash that sweater. 😊

@judyzeigler3980 5 месяцев назад

It is looking really good. You are doing a really good job. And it looked very good on you. Let's see how the sleeves turn out. You guys are the best. Love your videos. Lovely Kate, turn me on to watching you both. Glad she did.😊

@catnapper3923 5 месяцев назад

Fun!

@taniabeatty4079 5 месяцев назад

Please csn we see the totally finished sweater too 😊

@foleyjp1 5 месяцев назад

Guys! If your clothes continue to "Shrink" in your closet, perhaps you should have a discussion with your personal "social directors" (you both) and discuss changing some items on your cruise and travel menues. I have a bad feeling that there is a direct correlation between your closet shrinkage issue and your wonderful meals while travelling. Just saying you should think about it... Love you both - such sense of humor and wonderful stories to blame issues you encounter.
