Ora disponibile in Italiano! / Now available in Italian! à Partir de maintenant une version Française est disponible! / Now also available in French! Ahora también disponible en Español / Now also available in Spanish! This year a lighter weight version, Snug too, became available, adapted for worsted weight yarns like Drops Karisma or Cascade 220, in the same 4 sizes. This one is 17 sts to 10 cm / 4 inch. There’s an ebook that contains both versions of the pattern Snug is a simple baby and toddler cardigan, knit in squishy garter stitch. The pattern is designed in one piece, there’s just some seaming at the shoulders and neck. The clever construction may seem fiddly to some, for others it offers an opportunity to learn some handy techniques, while being an entertaining knit for the more advanced. Garter stitch knitted sideways makes for a very stretchy fabric, so it should fit for quite a while, as a jacket keeping the baby snug in it’s hood. Vertical rows continue seamless into the arms and hood, making this a nice and simple looking garment. As for the finishing, the only seams are at the shoulder and back of neck, done with a pretty invisible seaming. Diagram and links to techniques used are included in the pattern. Also a size diagram is available. Note: this pattern is for the somewhat experienced knitter, it does require you to know or learn some techniques like provisional cast on, grafting. Links to how-to’s are provided in the pattern. ---- Bulky version (14 sts / 10 cm) --- Gauge 14 sts x 28 rows = 10 x 10 cm (4” x 4”) in garter stitch. Note there is a worsted version (17 sts at 10 cm) of this jacket available as well. Sizes Newborn to 6 months (1 year, 2 years, 3 years) resulting in final chest circumference of 50 (60, 70, 80) cm (20 (24, 28, 32) inch)). Garter stitch fabric is very stretchy so size is flexible. Materials 275 (350, 450, 550) meters (300 (380, 495, 600) yards) of Cascade Yarns Ecological Wool, or any substitute yarn with same gauge. ----Errata & updates---- March 14, 2014 The pattern is now available in Dutch as well. 5 March 2014 In the worsted version at ‘Materials’ it says ‘Size 5 mm (US 10) 50cm/20” circular needle’, this should be ‘Size 5 mm (US 8) 50cm/20” circular needle’. This is changed in later versions.

I recently finished the most adorable little old man sweater for my 2 year old boy. This pattern is called Gramps and was designed by Tin Can Knits. Not to be confused with the other Gramps Cardigan I made for him before he was born by Kate Oates. :) I fell in love with a sample of this Gramps sweater during my visit to Monarch Knitting recently and promptly cast on. I guess I just couldn't resist the shawl collar and tiny pockets. And who wouldn't love those knitted elbow patches? I used Berroco Blackstone Tweed for the body and a lone skein of Madelinetosh Vintage floating around in my stash for the trims. I love the contrasting texture and color in the two yarns. It is just completely adorable. I love it. And my son... well.... doesn't. This is the best picture I could get of him in his new sweater.. and there was a lot of bribing involved to even get him into it. Listen to my next podcast episode for the entire devastating story. :(

Well.. after weeks of talking about baby knits on my podcast, I think it is HIGH TIME that I actually share them with you here on the blog! As you know, I've been preparing for the arrival of our baby boy due in less than a month! I've knit several baby things but have been too busy to blog about them. SO.. over the next few weeks, prepare to see a lot of tiny baby, knitted, cuteness. There is a lot to catch up on! First up.. Baby Sophisticate. Maybe the fastest, cutest newborn sweater EVER? This is one awesome pattern that you can find for free on Ravelry HERE. I knit the whole sweater and a matching hat in just a few days using only one skein of Malabrigo Worsted in the taupe colorway. I used Kate Oates Adventure Hat pattern from her new book Math For Hats. It turned out great! Perfect future baby shower present? I think so!

This large landscape oil painting by John Traynor captures a scene in New England. Cows are visible in front of a long picket fence, with a red barn and house behind the fence and lush green trees on either side and along the hills in the horizon. Fluffy, almost abstracted clouds sit above the hills, with a patch of blue skies shining through toward the top of the image. The painting is 48" x 72", and 58" x 82" framed. It is professionally framed in a classic, antiqued, gold leaf frame. It is signed by the artist in the bottom right-hand corner of the canvas, and is wired and ready to hang. John C. Traynor's painting style is reminiscent of some 19th century painters and the Dutch Masters. He uses his knowledge of light and color to create a certain mood in each of his works. The creation of atmosphere is an important element in Traynor's paintings. Painting outdoors, on location, is a prime source of inspiration and ideas for his landscapes. John travels extensively, painting the landscapes around him. John was born in 1961 and spent his early years in Chester and Mendham, New Jersey. His art studies began at Delbarton School in Morristown, New Jersey, and from there he furthered his education at Paier College of Art in New Haven, Connecticut. He studied figure painting at the Art Students League of New York, as a merit scholar, with Frank Mason. Traynor continued his studies in Vermont with Mr. Mason on landscape painting, drawing with Carroll N. Jones Jr. of Stowe, Vermont and sculpture with Brother Jerome Cox in Florence, Italy. John is a member of the Hudson Valley Art Association, The Salmagundi Club of New York, The National Society of Mural Painters and he is a Copley Master in the Copley Society of Boston. Mr. Traynor is the recipient of over two hundred awards of merit for his art, including the Grumbacher Gold Medal, the Robb Sagendorph Award and the Frank Dumond Memorial Award for best light and atmospheric effect in a painting. His work is enjoyed in over one thousand private and public collections in the United States and abroad. John currently resides with his family in southern New Hampshire.
