A new great-neice

I am really enjoying having a baby girl to knit for. Kevin's Mum and I loved this stitch pattern. She had knittied jumpers from it in the 1940's and continued in later years. I discovered it as a child's pattern and knitted it first in 1978. Katie had one in yellow when she was little. I have also used it for scarves.

 

I was thrilled to find this mini version. I knitted it in the Drops baby yarn. I was so pleased with the end result that I knitted it in a larger size in red.
