Notes

Baby Lincoln came a lot earlier than we all expected. No worries, I found the perfect sweater for the newest baby of our SnB group.

And I get to use up leftover stash yarn. Score!

6/27/14: Blocked, ends woven in and button attached.

This was actually a very quick sweater to knit. It was also my second attempt at fair isle knitting. One thing I found worked better for me this time is to work on that section of the sweater inside out. That way, my floats were evenly spaced and the fair isle was able to lie more flat when I blocked the sweater.
