I am usually really hard on myself when it comes to handcrafted items, but in spite of many mistakes (that I can see, but you probably can't) I am in LOVE! This is the cutest sweater EVER and on Theo... oh my word. I can't stand it!

I got the pattern from the book The Yarn Girl's Guide to Knits for Older Kids. I used Lion Brand Fisherman's Wool yarn in Nature's Brown for the body. For the pocket and stripes on the hood I used Bamboospun yarn in Limey.
I am participating in Just Something I Whipped Up over at The Girl Creative and the Sew Darn Crafty party at Sew Many Ways today.
Are you kidding me?!?! I love it!!! I cannot believe you are knitting and loving it and making something so totally awesome. Theo looks so absolutely precious in it - love the colors your chose! Keep knitting!

Wow, that IS cute!! I don't know how to knit but admire those who do and create beautiful/cute things with their skill! Isn't it fun to make something and feel the sense of accomplishment that comes with? :)
ReplyDeleteSo cute! I have been crocheting some gifts too. I love it on these cold rainy days. I just found your blog and I love it! You 'liked' my facebook page and I was curious and clicked on your name and your blog came up. Sounds like we are heading down the same paths. :) Look forward to reading more of your posts.
