It was cold enough for snow flurries this morning, so Joshua wore his newest sweater to the doctor.
The pattern is Marshall from the Rowan Babies book. It's knitted with 3 balls of Rowan Wool Cotton, color #907 Deepest Olive. I wasn't happy with this project while I was working on it. (I had to redo a couple of spots where I made careless mistakes, and one of my balls was a different dyelot. I worked every couple of rows with the odd ball to blend in the color variation, but there was still enough difference to make me think it looked striped.) Once I saw it on him, however, it became my favorite finished project. Carol is right on with her advice that you shouldn't worry about a mistake if it ?can?t be seen from the back of a galloping horse.? The color difference really isn't noticeable, and he just looks so grown up in the mock turtleneck. There are a few more pictures here, including a smiley action shot and one that shows all of his spikey, crazy hair.
