Pretty in Pink
Just a short one today.
From Debbie Bliss' Quick Baby Knits (available in paperback all over the place), a little pink (okay, mauve!) sweater.
Bliss patterns run big. I believe I've heard that a 12 month size in a Bliss pattern can often be worn well past the second birthday. Since this sweater is intended for a child in a very poor part of the United States (one of the Sioux reservations of South Dakota), I certainly hope that's true.
The yarn is Red Heart Soft. I do not like this yarn. It has very little body and it's more than a little "splitty." Other Red Heart yarns are a lot more to my liking! The 2 buttons are pearl hearts. See the pretty little triangles on the cuffs and bottom hem?
Wear it in good health, little one!
Oh, yeh, Two bucks.
