As I've said before, EVERYONE has been having babies! Here's a set for a little guy who isn't here yet. Originally, the sweater pattern was three colors with lice stitch all over the body (little flecks of white), but we decided to take it down to two colors and skip the lice stitches. Then I messed up the pattern on the body, so I went with the mistake for the sleeves and hat instead of going back to fix it. I'm pretty happy with how it all turned out, though the seams where the sleeves attach to the body seem a bit tight.
Yarn: Knit Picks Swish DK in Lava Heather and White
Needles: US6/4.0mm and US7/4.5mm
Timeframe: January 2 - 21, 2014
Mods: No lice stitches, no third color, messed up the pattern and went with it.
Problems: The sleeve seams seem a bit tight. I originally bound off the neck too tight but re-did that and it should be fine for a baby's head.
