February in April

I am knitting again, and not just cotton squares to catch baby spitup (I guess I skipped blogging about them). I am knitting something new and challenging and much more fun.
February in April
It is the "February Sweater" from Elizabeth Zimmermen's Knitting Almanac. Using Knit Picks Swish Superwash DK, and having a good old time with it so far! I am not certain of the repcient. If it is big enough it will go to Eleni's cousin- who is a bit older than Eleni. But if it is too small for her I will let Eleni have this one, and knit a second for the cousin.
Also, behind the knitting is my forsythia bush that I forced earlier this year blooming away on its own. Spring is here!

  1. Looks great so far! This was the next Elizabeth pattern I wanted to try, I just finished the BSJ and learned how to decipher her patterns!

  2. so pretty :) Isn't it nice to have children of varying sizes as potential recipients? Certainly takes the pressure out of sizing!

  3. I just bought that book after my Fun with Mitered Mittens adventure. I really, really don't understand how EZ's mind works, but I'm willing to learn.
