Progress on any projects has been slow this week.I am happy to report that one has hit the finishing line.
It is the Adam and Eve unisex jacket.
I got the pattern in her ravelry shop.The yarn I used is Wendy Merino DK in the colour called blue sky.
The size is 12-18 months.
Lucky I have the perfect sized model at home.
This jacket is intended as a gift for a little baby boy called Dylan.
Sadly my local yarn store is closed on a Thursday otherwise I would have finished yesterday.
The buttons are wooden turtles.
The jacket is knitted without any seam sewing. The body is knitted in one piece and the sleeves are done from the shoulders on DP's. The instructions are well written but do require a good understanding of knitting techniques. The sleeve caps are done using short row shaping and so are the shoulders.
It's a perfect baby patterns and I am sure I will knit more.
Speaking about my model. She is used to wearing hand knits.She loves reading books, I just can't understand why they all have to come off the shelve.
I also thought I had put them high enough. I had not thought about the little step stool, it can be taken from the bathroom and be used to get higher in other rooms.

Oh she does make a lovely model. I love the jacket too, so adorable. I wouldnt be too worried about her love of books, it just means she may be a great reader when she gets older. She must know that they are full of exciting things to read about. It is nice when your children love wearing knitwear isnt it.
