Most of my work time is spent snuggling with my little while watching Mr. Roger’s Neighborhood. I told my little buddy that Mr. Roger’s Mommy knit all the sweaters that he puts on at the start of each episode. I happened to be knitting up this top at the time and his little eyes got really big as he asked if this would be his “Rogers Shirt” and so I quickly finished it up as fast as I could. Whether you knit this up in Speckles, or a solid color, your little one will be set to be a good neighbor in a jiffy!
