for me?

Slipped the bug sweater on one of the boys yesterday to see if it will be big enough. It was a little weird looking on, since there aren't any armholes yet, but there's plenty of room in it. When I took it off him, he seemed disappointed. In fact, both of them were almost admiring the sweater and looked to be eyeing it for themselves. Maybe they're starting to get used to me measuring them and slipping half-knitted garments on them. Whatever the reason, this sweater they like!

bugs!
Awwww, what a little cutie! (The boy AND the sweater)
Adorable! And I must be the stupidest person in the world. Every time you show a picture of this sweater I keep looking for "bugs" and can't see them. Now I see that the bugs are VW bugs! So cute : )
That's funny, Kathy! Actually, I didn't pick up on the bug theme at first either. I had picked out this sweater and the Dale ladybug sweater as the ones I wanted to make just because I really liked them. Only after about a month of running the idea through my head and psyching myself up for the fair-isle work, did I realize that they were both "bugs". Maybe I'm smarter than I think? Or dumber!
That is a great picture, your son looks a little puzzled as if to say "I think you've forgotton something mom" Brooke looks at me the same way when I get her to try on half finshed garments. She picks up the ends of yarn and says things like "whats this for?"
Some things just seem to go together... peas and carrots, boys and cars. The sweater is looking great! Kudos on the steeks!
the sweater looks great! very cute and i'm glad the boys are excited about it! makes it more fun. lisa
