Having finished my cardigan last week I have been itching to start something new. We have a really good wool stall at a local market and the wool is really cheap and good quality but its only on once a week. Last Thursday he wasn't there and as this Thursday was forecast rain I knew he wouldn't be there this week (wool and rain don't mix). So I have been trying to match wool that I have to a pattern that I haven't found yet. So cue endless hours looking at ravelry trying to find a good pattern but everything is either the wrong size, not the right wool etc so with evening boredom levels at a maximum I finally picked a top down raglan baby cardigan. This pattern is very easy so far (top-down-raglan-baby-sweater) and looks like it will be a perfect little cardigan for our friends new baby which is due early May. I am using Sirdar breeze in a light beige (has to be a unisex colour) and this wool is so soft just perfect for a newborn. When the baby arrives I will knit something in pink or blue but for now this will keep me busy for a week or so.
