...and well dressed, is what will be said of baby Zachariah once he makes his appearance. I needed a gift for a baby shower on Saturday and after considering a few patterns in Ravelry, I am so happy that I settlled on the Baby Sophisticate. I cast on Wednesday evening and by Friday morning the sweater was completely knit and blocked.
I used Berroco Vintage in a heathered brown and, I have to also call this a one skein wonder. I even have a few yards of yarn left over. The hat is very stretchy and will fit for quite a while. The pattern is entitled Little Boy Blue was also found in Ravelry. To complete the look of a little professor I embellished a onesie with a plaid tie.
There are quite a few comments in Ravelry about the size of the sweater. It tends to run small, but I made the supposedly 6-12 month size with the sleeve length for the smaller size so that it would fit 0-3 months. The mom to be loved it and so do I.

I really liked this sweater when I was looking to knit for new babies in the family, but they are girls, so I will save it for the next time. The onesie is adorable!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I saw that many people made the sweater in girl colors and it works!
