made for my co-worker Miguel and his wife Kelly who are expecting baby Rachael next month. this was from a kit from Coldwater Collective made from Dream In Color 100% merino. there was just enough to make this adorable cardigan and the pattern was very well written. learned some nifty new techniques, too. wish I had a better picture! will make sure the proud parents get a picture of baby modeling. this was a really fun knit and was done in less than a week of evenings watching tele. being a size 6-12 months it is a teeny, tiny. I also love that it is not girly-girl, but there is a bit of pink at the neck. had this not been from a kit, it would have been prohibitive to make. DIC yarns cost about $18 per hank. to purchase all of the colors would have been over-the-top expensive and I would have enough yarn to make 50 of these little things. think I have enough yarn left over to make a newborn-size hat, though!
