Pattern: Baby Sweater on Two Needles, by Elizabeth Zimmerman from Knitter's Almanac.
Needles: some little Addi turbos - maybe 2s? I can't recall
Yarn: My own handspun, from the Roses of Childhood colorway
A holiday knit, finally gifted so now I can blog about it.
What a JOY to knit this was!! EZ's pattern is brilliant, and the result is pretty darned adorable if I do say so myself.
I love the look and feel of handspun all knit up. Millspun still has a place in my knitting life, but I find myself looking for more and more patterns to use my handspun, handdyed yarn.
The sweater went to my dear, dear friends who are having a baby girl after two sons. I thought a good dose of pink would be in order!

You have outdone yourself. Rock on, V.
I can't wait to put that sweater on our baby!! The boys are all excited. The poor girl will have to deal with a lot of this I imagine.
