Tempting

Filed under: knitting — Kristin @ 5:14 pm

I made Tempting for Laura for her birthday.  The yarn is Cashmere Luxury Aran 45% merino wool / 49% microfiber / 6% cashmere in Plum (07) from AC Moore.  The needles were size 8.  I needed an extra skein since I made the torso 2 inches longer than called for.

Duo

Filed under: knitting — Kristin @ 11:13 pm

I made Duo for my cousin’s baby.  The yarn is TLC Cara Mia 50% acyrlic / 19% nylon / 18% rayon / 13% angora in Demin (2801), Cranberry (2376), and Winter White (2001) that I got at AC Moore.  The buttons are 7/8″ from JHB International, style 92086.  I used size 7 needles.  The sweater is size 2T.

Once he actually tried the sweater on I removed the buttons.  They were too close together for comfort and actually completely unnecessary, which is a shame since I love those buttons.
