After much debate, I decided on the Matinee Jacket for Evy's Fall sweater. I actually finished this months ago, but I just couldn't get around to blogging about it. So without further ado, the Matinee Jacket:
My friend Rachel gave me the glass buttons, which were here grandmother's (ok, maybe great-grandmother's - sorry, I can't remember!). The buttons totally make the sweater!
The sweater is knit in Swish DK, because washable really is important at this age. Evy's has worn this this down already! I'm a little sad about the amount of pills on the sweater already, but she is pretty tough on her clothes.
I've also made her a had and a pair of mittens, but I probably won't get around to blogging about them. Still to come are Kev's birthday socks and my cabled hat. On my needles right now: Kev's Christmas stocking and Christmas log cabin throw. One's got cables and the other is nice and easy garter stitch!
