Lilac Cardigan and Bonnet

 

After some feverish knitting I have completed both the baby sweater and the bonnet within six days. I do love the speediness of a baby knit! I've knit this baby sweater so many times (fifteen times according to Ravelry) and the bonnet was my first time ever. I enjoyed the construction immensely, Elizabeth Zimmermann was ahead of her times.

What are you working on this week?

  1. Lovely! They turned out so nicely Karen. I have not been working on much (work has gotten in my way), but I hope to get "back to it" soon.

  2. They are both lovely baby items and will look even sweeter when they can be worn by your next grandchild!

  5. This looks like a different sweater than the pattern that you linked to on Ravelry. Have you made changes. I would love to make it for my grandson.

  6. They look great! I love the color. My daughter in law told me that she loves purples....not so much pink. I think I will need to find a purple just like yours!!

  7. Baby knitting is fun and your set looks great. That EZ bonnet has been on my Someday Knit list forever but I still haven't gotten around to making one.
