Perfect fit.

Finished. Just add Vinnie.

Lots of ends to sew in and a button band still to knit but happy with the result.

I love knitting but nothing suits a baby better than a bit of wash-softened towelling that’s been wrapped round your big brother and sister after many a bath.

You’re never too old to steal your baby brother’s Jumperoo - although you might wish you hadn’t.

Fabric stitch. By knitting below alternate stitches you end up with interesting stripes. Great for using up odd balls of wool but I’m not sure if I like it. Any opinions welcome.

Looking angelic in his pixie bonnet - almost!

Smile if you like your new jumper!

I love this depiction of the seasons from a favourite childhood storybook from the fifties called The Mouse Telegrams. Let’s hope we’re on the cusp of Spring.

Early morning walk on the beach today - it felt like spring.

Morning sun. Morning shadow. This time last week.

Duck jumper finished, soon to be winging it’s way across the Atlantic- a late being born present. Pattern, including matching pixie bonnet, will be on LoveKnitting by the weekend. There - I’ve said it, now I’ve got to do it !!!
