EDIT MAY 2020: not solid enough to resist washing at 60 degrees and high tumbling apparently … one of the yarns totally felted, I was so sad! Pinned the ruined sweater to the wall with a sign warning hubby to never do that again!

A solid little sweater for a very lively little boys … just look at the pictures, lol. 2020 is my stashbusting year, and so I tried out this nice little pattern. It’s easy and nice, the proportions are very accurate (in this size at least). Would have been nicer in 1 color, or at the least 1 color for the sleeves but I miscalculated my yarn.

The colar in only 2,5er needles is very stretchy but large enough to fit well. I put the body stitches on hold and knitted the sleeves first - to measure how much clear blue I had, but what a pleasure to finish them before you attack the body! I made the body slightly longer than the pattern says but it creeps up a bit on the big round baby belly, so some more length would actually have been better. Oh well, will stretch it out a bit after washing.
