I love a Friday FO! And who could resist a BABY Friday FO?
I’ve had the knitting portion of Baby Nolan’s Snowsuit finished for a few weeks now, but I hadn’t FINISH finished it until now.
I just searched through my buttons for 7 that kinda looked alike but not really. And I couldn’t find Detroit Lion fabric in a print small enough for fabric buttons.
That is right. I said the Detroit Lions!
And the Lions got a very rare victory on Sunday, so as of right now this snowsuit isn’t a loser! It is still a shame to cloak a child in defeat so early in life. Cute defeat, though, is much better than ugly defeat, and we’ve got cute in spades.
Have I mentioned how amazing duplicate stitch is? I didn’t know that this sweater was going to be a Lion’s sweater when I started it, but it just kinda happened that way. With the help of sparkly white yarn.
… yes. I see that it’s off center. But when it’s on…
… it looks awesome! So I’ll make sure no one lays it down and really examines it.
I’m knocking these holiday presents out. How is your holiday knitting coming?
Have a great weekend full of holiday knitting!
Pattern: Baby Sweater Buffet (Snowsuit add on pattern coming soon!)
Yarn: Lion Brand Wool Ease in Gray and Blue, around 425 yards, and some extra sparkly white for duplicate stitch
Needles: Size 9 circulars and DPNs
























Dude- LOVE it!!
