f.o. : northgate tweed pullover.
My mum commissioned me to make a baby sweater for her this summer, to gift to a friend. I decided the Northgate Tweed Pullover by OGE Knitwear would be a perfect option–a bit of color work and an adorable shawl collar to give me a bit of interest when knitting. I was able to use…

f.o. | purl soho baby sweater.
For a colleague’s impending girl. I loved knitting this one. The details were so interesting and the construction was impeccable. The Little Baby Sweater by Purl Soho is knit from the bottom up, you create a squared set it sleeve later using pick ups and cable cast ons–so fun! I’ve never knit a sweater this…

Abernathy sweater knit for my nephew, Tyler. I used the gorgeous Plucky Knitter Merino Lite sport weight yarn in a grayish colorway; this yarn, to die for.

Presto…Chango? Nope, Presto Almost Finished-O!
Saturday mornings, especially in winter, are the best times to lay around and knit. There isn’t enough white space here in which I can drool all over the laying about the couch in slippers, a full coffee mug, an incredible night’s sleep under the belt, and a knitting project on the sticks. That being said,…

Leather and lace? Nope, it’s not for Stevie Nicks…try Baby Alpaca and Lace.
I am making serious progress on the Presto Chango Baby Sweater by Valerie Wallis, who runs the Shoeless Val blog. The sweater is absolutely adorable and practical because while I have no first hand experience in this, my Mum has told me its never fun to fuss with trying to get a baby into an…
