Lucky for me the exact stuff I was looking for was in the discount corner at the local yarn shop. Still meant $5 dollars for 50gms but hay for raspberry coloured 100% merino wool who's complaining! I mixed up two patterns to come up with this one. Unfortunately I printed out the patterns long ago and have forgotten the sites I got them from so I cannot share them.
Here's a photo of the little gem!
It's been finished off with the cutest of pink mother-of-pear buttons. I am also planing to make a beanie to go with the cardigan. I hope it will keep her warm this winter. It will be too small for the following winter.
That is a perfectly darling sweater. You do excellent work. I'm sure it will fit just fine and a beanie would just finish it off. She is lucky to have such good friend. Take care Kathy

Oh, my -- it is a gem! A fabulous gem with such a glorious shade of pink. Beautiful work, Kathy Ann!
ReplyDeleteIt's just adorable! The raspberry yarn is so pretty with that pattern too. Very nice.
ReplyDeleteSo gorgeous--love the color--much nicer than baby pink, which is what she will be bombarded with!
