More pictures: thev and completed baby sweater

[thrihyrne]

As promised, I now have pictures of the completed knitted baby sweater which is ending up being for my younger brother and his wife. The child (unknown gender) is due in May. I have no idea whether or not s/he will be able to wear it. It's meant to be for a 6 month old, but having never had one, nor been around very wee infants, I'm pretty clueless.

Yes, it's Thev wearing her weekend wear. ;)



A close up of the inside of the sweater— because how often do you look at the inside of a hand-knitted sweater, eh?

Yoga today was good, then I went to Target and used up a gift card to get a workout top and other stuff. Writing and editing to do today, and try to catch a couple of people on the phone. Right this second I'm enjoying an IM with Callum, always fun, especially now that I've spent time with him in real life! Fandom really has graced me with wonderful souls like you all. Hope you're enjoying your weekend!

That's gorgeous.

The sweater's not bad either. :)

That's absolutely gorgeous! It looks much bigger than six months to me (I would guess 12-18 months), and I do have somewhat of an eye. Even if its prime wearing time (in terms of size) hits mid- summer, it looks big enough to me that the baby will get good use of it in the spring and fall. I think you have a win there!

Beautiful inside work--the sign of an excellent craftsperson.

That is a beautiful sweater!

I hope the neck is stretchy. Aside from that, yes, I think he should get to wear it! (I'm now saying the Yiddish thing I say to ward off the Evil Eye.)

That is just incredible! I had no idea you could knit like that. What an intricate and gorgeous design! You are totally amazing. Hope all is well with you. Had a good day at a book fair.

Wow. Beautiful sweater! I had always wondered if I was weaving the ends in correctly and now I can look at the insides of yours and think, YES! I AM! HOORAY! :P

Oh my stars!!! It's beautiful!!! And you always want sweaters on babies to be just a little bit big. If it's too small, it's hell getting it on and off.

*kisses your sweet cheeks* Nice to see you smiling!

V. cool project. J. and fam will love it, I'm sure (still can't believe he's going to be a dad in a month or so!). Great to see your smiling face, too, be-fleecy-topped and all. I think fleecy-wear is wrongly vilified. I love them. :D
