And this Friday I bring to you another FO! I have finished my Baby Sophisticate #2!! (Stashbustin’ #28)
This time around I made the 0-3 month size. I used Caron Simply Soft again in Berry Blue. I used 100 grams or 185 yards of yarn. I started with a partial skein and I only had 5-6 yards left of yarn.
This smaller size only took me a few evenings of TV knitting. I did notice that my tension changed when I used the DPNs on the sleeves. Not that anyone else would notice. It bugs me a little….not enough to frog and start over though!
The buttons were some I had hanging out in the stash. The color is very close to the yarn but isn’t as matchy/matchy as the picture shows.
This pattern is so amazing and this is fast becoming my favorite go-to project for baby present knits. I cannot recommend this pattern enough! I don’t have a recipient for this sweater yet, so in the baby present stash it goes!
Happy Friday Everybody!!!




It looks great! I find that I have to go up a needle size when I knit sleeves in the round because my ITR gauge is a lot tighter than my flat gauge. My sleeves get a noticeable “hump” in them if I don’t do this.
Oh the lessons we learn while knitting!
this sweater is so adorable! a friend is having a baby in december so i may be jumping on you baby sophisticate bandwagon in the very near future (:
I adore that color! it is so vibrant and beautiful.
Everyone who makes Baby Sophisticate says it becomes their go to pattern. I must buy the pattern 😉
Great stash busting.
