Garter Ridge Cardigan

I finished one of the Christmas presents for my soon to be niece. I believe my mom said that she should be here at the end of this month. The sweater turned out okay. I'm not to happy with it. It does still need a bath. The pattern can be found on Ravelry.




The buttons I picked up at Jo-Ann Fabrics last summer. I paid $.50 for them and just love them. I had been waiting to find something to put them on.

I have started another Christmas present and hopefully will be done with it in the next few days.

Comment Train from Ravelry....

Very cute sweater! Was it hard to make? I love it and have lots of babies in my life right now who need one!

Great minds must think alike, because you can see from my blog that I have a post titled "Christmas in July" and that I've also started my Christmas knitting. Finished up item #1 last night (a scarf...boring). Working on some slippers now!
