Središnji sadržaj
The swaddle for a newborn is crocheted by alternating the height of the stitches, resulting in varying heights within the rows. Throughout its length, the swaddle alternates horizontal decorative patterns at intervals of 4 cm, while the backside remains uniform. On the side where a woven strip should be located, the swaddle has been cut and preserved in a length of 1 meter. It is made from fine, thin cotton thread, crafted with thin yarn and a very intricate design, and it has been used.
The swaddle is part of the contents of the box labelled: This crocheted or knitted item is handmade by our late grandmother Fagioni. It was used as a baby wrap for Father when he was little in 1936.
