pink peace

pattern:  Knitting Pure & Simple #981 Children’s Neckdown Cardigan
yarn:  Peace Fleece Worsted - Moscow Magic Pink
needles:  Clover Bamboo
cast-on:  Sept 8, 2007  cast-off:  Sept 14, 2007 
notes:  This was one quick knit.  Seven days start to finish!  I debated what size to knit and ended up knitting the 6-8 and adding an inch to the body and the sleeves for some growing room.  So much for that idea!  As you can see from the pictures, it fits now.  I’m sure it will last thru the winter into the spring, but prolly not much past that.  The buttons were puchased from VYT and I really think they take the sweater from homemade to handmade.  The Peace Fleece was a bit rough while knitting but bloomed and softened quite a bit after a good steam blocking.
