ALL DONE!

“Child’s Aran Sweater” by Yankee Knitter, Addi Turbos (6 & 8s - I knit tight), Lion Brand Wool-Ease in forest green heather

The Baby Sweater of DOOM! is finally finished. 

Note to self: it doesn’t matter how stinkin’ small the sweater is, aran sweaters take a sh’load of work.

Second note to self: blackberry (bobble) stich makes you break out in hives. Do not knit anything that requires blackberry again!

Third note to self: I bet I could fly through a baby sweater that doesn’t require 2 types of cables and the flippin’ blackberry stitch….

I have apparently been bitten by the sweater bug.  Is this a good thing?

That’s Claudia’s handpainted in Butter Pecan - which I think will be sox for the MIL.  And a copy of “Adorable Knits for Tots”.  (What?  My friends are having babies and there is the MOST AMAZING pirate sweater in there.  I’ve got that marked for SOMEONE’ s first born.  I know the day will come - I just don’t know when.  *grin*)  Plus I love that star sweater on the cover - I’m thinking about knitting it for Beatle.
