Striped Baby Sweater complete!

I have been busy knitting and finished up this baby sweater this weekend.



I love the colors and the wool. I think I am going to make another one in "girl" colors with a picot edge later this winter. Here are the details:

Pattern: Adapted from "Latte Baby Sweater" by Liselotte Weller (click here for Ravelry link). I could really only use Liselotte's picture because the pattern is only available in Danish. I knit it in the rnd, bottom up, hemmed cuffs, and went with a wider boatneck collar and a relaxed fit.

Size: 18 mo (finished chest measurement 22")

Yarn: Woolganic DK, colorway: MC1: Krishna (blue), MC2: Kyoto (green), CC: Samsara (yellow). I used 1.5 balls of each of the MCs and .5 ball of the CC

Gauge: 5.25sts/inch, 8 rows/inch, unblocked

Needles: US 6/4.0 mm

I wish my little ones were still little enough to wear this sweater, but this is going off as a gift. I am really happy with how it turned out. And the yarn is so soft!
