Summer Knitting

 

 

What is it about baby sweaters in the summer? I love to knit for Wee Ones (projects get finished!) and working with summer colors is always fun.

This Seed Stitch sweater pattern is one I have made since my kids were small. It is worked from the top down in one piece, with the sleeves worked in-the-round. No seams. I just resized/published it for FIXATION, which is the ONLY cotton yarn I will work with. Love the s-t-r-e-t-c-h in the stuff, which makes it PERFECT when dressing babies and kids.

I also added a pair of booties in the same color, made from a free pattern on SAARTJE KNITS.

Funny, I was just thinking about making a Fixation sweater for the little guy but wasn't sure I wanted to do the pullover for the summer.   Thanks for the bootie link too!
