These are a couple of sweaters I knit for a couple of my grandbabies. Asher likes green, so he has a green sweater and hat.
The buttons make for easy putting on.
Cables are fun to knit. It keeps the sweater from being boring.
I used a Knitpicks washable wool and a Sirdar pattern that I really like.
And here is the hat to go with it. I wanted it to match the sweater so I came up with my own version using a couple of different patterns as my base.
I bought a pom-pom maker that is very easy to use and enjoy making lots of pom-poms for hats.
This is a very easy and cute sweater that I made for Melanie. She has yet to grow into it.
I used a very, very soft yarn from Hobby Lobby. My concern is if it will hold up through washings without losing shape. Hmmm....
I love this pattern though and will keep using it.
They are both lovely, and look very cosy.
