The last time I was in Canada visiting my mum and dad, I decided I needed a project to do. This was last October. In terms of completing a project, "October" meanings "OMG!!! I need to start anything I want done in time for Christmas!"
My cousin had her first baby the pervious May, so I thought the perfect recipient of my first project would be my new baby cousin.
This jumper is from the book Wee Knits by Mission Falls. I used the Mission falls brand wool. In retrospect it was a really nice experience using this pattern. The wool was a nice texture and it was relatively simple. However there are a few confusing parts of the pattern and I did have to modify the stripe sequence so that the green stripes stuck out rather then in.
I was proud of my boyfriend for picking out the little bear buttons. I thought they were a perfect find. The end product was finish by Christmas... but I didn't get into the post until New Years. However it got good reviews from my little cousin (well...his mum said he liked it... I'm sure he will thank me when he can speak.)
