I fear I left it too long with this one. I started it when he was a few weeks old and got distracted, thought it wouldn’t matter because he was so small and then he got huge through doing all the feeding that stopped me knitting and now this is clearly only going to fit a week or two!
The only annoying thing is I had a brain storm and knitted the border in a totally different stitch to the cuffs and bottom 🙄 But never mind; it is finished nicely, it fits okay in terms of shape and how I put it together and I like that the sides and sleeves match after all 🙂 Do like this Sirdar Baby Crofter yarn. I might have to make him a little funky tank top in it 🙂
So there you go. A knitting project finished. Hurrah. I would do something crocheted next but 2 of the 6 balls of wool I bought for it has disappeared. Sigh. It’s generally identical to Nina’s cardigan though.
Go and see what Cara has been finishing over at Finished It Friday. I really should have called Bene Hugo… then we could have matched 😉
Cara says
He looks fantastic in your beautiful creation. I’ve not had much success with small cardigans in the past. I could never get the underarm seams right and could never get them over a baby’s arm. So I’m even more in awe of your talent. Ben looks like he is such a patient model too x
