Finally done

So, four weeks after the baby, the sweater is done and gifted:

Lazy Daisy detail:

The yarn, Mission Falls Superwash, seemed splitty and a little fussy to work with. That reminds me -- I had better tell the (understandably sleepy) new mom that it can be washed. I hope it still fits -- it seems quite wee when I look at it. I'll start the Christmas knitting now, after the camping trip this weekend when I intend to make great strides on my gray sweater. Inspired by Denise, I'm contemplating bell sleeves. . .

This is sweet. I love how lazy daisy stitches can "fancy up" knitting. :o)

That is unbelievably darling. Wish we were camping with you.

Oh, it's adorable! I love the detail.

Ah, bell sleeves. I secretly adore bell sleeves, I think primarily because they're the closest thing to wings an adult can wear in public, and I was always trying to fly as a child :)
