Occasionally knitters ask each other what they are knitting.
Usually the answer is the most current project. If you want to get a knitter really thinking, ask them how many projects they have going on. The knitter may pause, start counting, and tell you one or two. Or she may start to count on her fingers…. And never give you a straight answer.
I seem to be in the midst of a baby boom. Friends are having babies. My husband’s co workers are having babies. Friends of friends are having babies, and they all need to be welcomed with something adorable and handknit.
So there is a baby sweater on the needles, another in the planning stages. Two recently finished- pictures below. And then there is the scarf near the tv, half a sock in my purse, and a linen top that might actually be done by summertime.
True confession here- five, count ‘em, five projects in progress.
Here are the sweaters-

Cabled Collar Sweater

Details for above sweaters- They are both knit in Classic Elite Provence, using a Cabin Fever pattern. Both are top down raglans, minimal finishing required! The pattern’s intended gauge is five and a half stitches per inch. I like the texture of Provence at five stitches to the inch. By using the pattern’s numbers for the smallest size and Provence at five stitches to the inch the sweaters should fit the babies at about six months.
