one of my oldest and best friends is about to have her first baby - all the way over in Scotland, can you believe it?!
I can't fathom that she is going to be a mother and I won't be able to just call in and give her a hand, or cuddle this little babe for many months.
so of course, I'm sending some knitted love to wrap her/him in until I can do it in person.
a really simple, fine-weight cardigan, with 3 buttons at the yoke, and a slip stitch pattern on the border using some beautiful handpainted yarn.

a baby is so wonderful. i'm knitting for a cousin's first baby too--all the way over in vancouver--and it's so much fun. but i'm sad too i won't get to see the baby. i can't wait to see the reveal for yours. i've resisted putting anything up in case my aunt sees
Oh it looks gorgeous - love the contrast of the handpainted yarn, very nicely done!
That looks beautiful! What a lovely combination.
Oh gorgeous! I love the section with the handpainted yarn.
I love the colorful textured band. Can't wait to see the rest of it.
That's such a lovely colour combination, so sweet.
Love the colour combo!
I love the little edge of bright color! This will be so loved.
what a beautiful and thoughtful gift! youre so clever!
such a lovely little piece. Isn't a knitted hug just such a great thing to send when the real thing can't be done?
I'm not sure my last comment worked??? If not it was along the lines of this is gorgeous and I'm sure it will be treasured. xoxo lj
Good lord, that's glorious! Lovely. I am definitely copying that idea.
it looks gorgeous, it is going to be a very lucky baby to have such a nice cardigan to wear.
