red, white and blue sweaters

Lookie, patriotic baby sweaters!

And they're all finished too. I've been busy!! Georgie you saw last week. Now joining him in red is Tide from Miss Bea's Seaside, done in Knitpicks Shine Sport with some lovely little red buttons with flower details (the boys helped me pick out these buttons).

And our white sweater is the little smock cardigan from Sublime's new Soya Cotton book in Rowan Denim. I found precious little butterfly buttons for this one.

And it fits wee one perfectly!

Wee one is just a perfect model. I think you should hire her out to Rowan for some pay back. I love to knit baby sweaters. Thanks for the line-up.

The buttons are great little details! They really compliment the sweaters perfectly.

Love the red sweater! Really, love it. I want to size it up for myself.

Great model!

What an adorable collection - hope you all had a fun Memorial Day weekend (is it wrong to have fun on Memorial Day?) Re: the red buttons - someone knit me a sweater with similar buttons when I was three or four years old. Even though I'm about to look Medicare eligibility square in the eye, I still remember those buttons fondly.

The buttons work great and the sweaters are wonderful! You do such wonderful work all the time.

Adorable. Missing the days when I had a wee one to knit for. She's such a cutie and she models everything so perfectly.

They're all adorable--the sweaters and wee one! The buttons you all picked out go incredibly well with the sweaters. =)
