An FO for the little ones
This year, there are no less than 15 babies being born to people I love. It's quite clearly out of control. And I just can't knit that fast. However, there are some babies whose moms have been through so much with me, I can't deny them the handknits.
The Cabled Raglan Baby Sweater may be one of my new baby favorites.
Pattern: Cabled Raglan Baby Sweater- Rav
Needles: Knit Picks Options US 4
Yarn: Knit Picks Simply Cotton Sport- Malted Milk
Date Started: 6/17/09
Date Finished: 7/25/9
Mods: I did not use any closure on this sweater. No buttons. No snaps. I think it'll be cute to just let it be open and it'll be easy to throw this on over any outfit.
The organic cotton was wonderful to work with. And I'm always impressed that Knit Picks can offer such quality at such a low price.

That's adorable! I like the idea of just leaving it open, it looks great. A perfect quick and beautiful baby handknit. 15 babies?? Wow - better get to knitting :)
Oh, that's so cute and tiny! I love it.
Wow, 15 babies is a lot of babies! Hope you're a speedy knitter!
It's adorable. I can't resist cables and I love little baby/toddler cardis that have cables. Leaving it button and snap free is good. I rarely ever buttoned or snapped my kiddos cardis.

So glad you posted this adorable cable sweater. Im with you, no closure needed! Great to hear the knit picks works really well.
15 babies. That's a lot of lovin in the world ! Wahoo
Gorgeous! I love how the cable makes the bottom edge sit.
That grill is massive in the last post!
So cute! I love your yarn choice, too :)
I just used that yarn for a baby sweater too - loved it. Yours looks great!
15 pairs of baby socks wouldn't take too long...
Very cute! I have that pattern somewhere on my computer, will definitely need to try it!
That is just adorable. I really like it in the natural color. Lucky baby!
That's beautiful! Simple, elegant, clean lines, but I can just see it on a cute little baby... perfect as is, no need to add anything.
Beautiful handknit....almost makes me want another baby, but wait, um, no thank you!
Where did you get the pattern, Nell?
Oh, that's so cute! I want to try both the pattern and the KP yarn. I love that KP has an organic option now.
Perfect timing! My girlfrined just found out she is having twins! Two boys. Gotta make her two somethings and this is perfect.
