Kipling Sweater

I fell in love with the Kipling baby sweater a few months ago while googling baby knits. I had a heck of a time with this pattern though. Maybe because I haven't knit many sweaters. Or maybe because I've got this preggo-brain thing going on that makes even simple things much more difficult. Who knows! But I couldn't figure out her instructions on how to pick up stitches for the sleeves so I ended up just making it up as I went along. It's a little wonky because of that but who cares! It's like newborn size so it will only fit for a few weeks at most anyway :-)


It's knit with Bernat Satin in "Mist Heather" and I used up just less than one ball of yarn. (It's not so shiny in person either, that was thanks to the flash photo.) It's soft, machine washable, and was inexpensive. All pluses in my book when it comes to baby knits.

Now onto the next project! Time is ticking away. Only 3 months left until D-day and counting...
