i finally finished the upsized puerperium cardigan for the
junebug. the upsizing was actually just choosing a bigger needle size and
making it longer than her first one.
i know i promised photos of the baby in it, and they will
follow, for sure. at the moment i’m just so hesitant to put it on her, as she
is shuffling on the floors like mad and the other handknits she has been
wearing have pilled terribly. so i though maybe once she crawls it will be
better? no idea. it is quite generous in sizing that i think she might wear it
in summer still. i love the little butterfly buttons... the rest of the cardi
is closed. I actually ended up sewing her first one together too, once she
became mobile the buttons were constantly opening.
i don’t want to bore you, but i’m still reading „when god
was a rabbit“, and enjoying it so far, and it’s still the garden sweater i’m
working on, but as you can see it’s making significant progress. i might have
to take it off the needles to actually try it on once.
joining ginny again this week for yarn along. what are you
knitting and reading?

love the sweet little sweater and the buttons just make it "pop"!! I think I've said it before but I love the contrasting orange on the dark grey!!
The little sweater is beautiful, love the colour. And the contrast of your WIP is awesome.
The buttons are gorgeous! Such sweet knit!
When I see these little knits for wee ones it makes me wish I had knitted when my boys were little. They are so adorable!
Aww, that sweater is so sweet!
That little sweater is so cute.
Oh, I love your blog. I'll have to make those cute toilet paper birds with my kiddos tomorrow. You've got a great style. New subscriber--wave!
