So a couple of weeks ago, I was wandering around the Knitpicks site, as you do. Well actually, I don’t really know why I do, because most of the time I just get cranky that they won’t ship internationally and I can’t buy their yarn, but I digress.
\nAnyway, whilst playing on the site, I found this<\/a> pattern for a Baby Ruched Cardigan<\/a> by Terri Kruse<\/a>.
\nI had to make it. Alas, I know of no baby girls, and our family is at that in between stage, where my sisters and I have all finished our child bearing, and our children aren’t yet ready to begin. (We hope!). My friends have all been very good about delivering tiny boys unto the world of late. Holy crap, we’re about to face a girl shortage!
\nThen I remembered that my twitter friend, sunrisesister<\/a> had kindly given birth to a baby girl a few months back, just so that I could knit this cardi. (I’m sure of it!)
\nSo I dove into the stash, and came up with a yummy hank of “Thank Ewe Superwash Sock” in Watermelon. At Spotlight, I found the perfect buttons.

\nThis was an awesome knit! It went quickly, with no dramas, and looks so irresistibly cute!

\nPerfect!
\nSpecs:
\nPattern: Baby Ruched Cardigan<\/a> by Terri Kruse
\nYarn: Thank Ewe Superwash Sock<\/a> in Watermelon. (Sadly no longer dyeing, it appears)
\nNeedles: 3.25mm and 3.5mm
\nSize: I knit the 12mth size – I wanted to make sure she got some wear out of it before she outgrew it!
\nMods: Instead of icord button loops I did crochet chain loops, it was just less fiddly I think.
\nI’m happy with it, it’s a repeater I think! (Provided people keep providing me with baby girls!) I love the buttons, *love* them.

\nAnd the verdict? Look for yourself!
