A Knit A Week

I know you have all been wondering,

so I will keep you in suspense no longer.

Yes! The Queen has been knitting.

Just not photographing very efficiently.

Here is Princess #1's Birthday sweater.

Yes, she turned 12.

No, I didn't document it on the blog.

Moving, apparently, is a time suck.

Who knew?! {grin}

She chose the Diana Cardigan, a pattern
from an Interweave Knits magazine.

This gorgeous young lady can't possibly be my baby!!
I swear I had her only yesterday . . .

The Details:

Pattern:  Diana Cardigan by Amy Miller

Yarns:  Three Irish Girls Cotton Rayon Sport

in the sweetmint color way for the main color.

And from the stash no less!!

I wish my photography skills could show off the 

beautiful sheen this yarn has--stunning.

Jill Draper Makes Stuff Aurora

in the sterling color way for the ruffles down the front

and on the sleeves

Verdict:  Gorgeous fit.  Fussy knit.  She loves the feel and shape.

We found some great vintage buttons on etsy

that really finish it off!!
