Our cutie patootie Jonathan was somewhat of a reluctant model, but given that he is the “smallest” of the Elkins (which translated into less knitting at the last minute), he was the candidate for this shot. The sweater is a classic boys’ design, but made in a slightly non-traditional color combo. The greatest part is that it is washable! A must for little boys and girls alike.
