Timmy Sweater
My nephew Timmy is turning 10 in a few weeks, so I figured I better get started on his sweater. My sister has 3 boys, and I usually knit one sweater a year for one of them. This year it's Timmy's turn. Information from sis and Timmy: He's always hot, wool might not be a good idea. I like my sweaters baggy, and long. Any color is fine. (His favorite color has always been yellow, but I just couldn't do a yellow sweater for him - not my fav color at all).
So this is what I have so far:
Info:
Pattern: Yankee Knnitter Designs Pattern #30, Easy Bulky Sweater.
I'm doing the ribbed cuff, cable front. (There are three choices for ribbing and neck. Cable or not)
Yarn:Arucania Natur Cotton, chunky, color #18. Purchased at LYS a few months ago, half off!
Needles: US 7 &9
A close up of the yarn, love the variation in color and yarn size. Wish you could feel how soft it is. Definitely the best cotton I've ever knit with.
Hopefully there will be plenty of knitting time this weekend. I'm having my bookgroup over for our annual "Bookgroup Away" weekend. Howie's off on his annual OGGA (Old Guy's Get Away) so we have the house to ourselves, two nights of knitting, talking, eating, drinking, shopping, and all that.
