While browsing my Ravelry notebook, I came across this little sweater I made and I thought to myself, in a lilting southern accent, "My goodness, I have a beautiful niece." And then, "That is THE cutest little sweater I ever did knit." That might have been Scarlett O'Hara.
Soooooh (that's a Minnesota accent) It's sort of cheating to bring up knits from a million years ago and pretend like it's a new knit, but since it's so cute and I really don't have anything new to post regarding fiber artsy stuff, this will have to do.
If you'd like to make an adorable sweater like this for your favorite little one, here are the specs:
Cable Yoke Jacket
by: Kyoko Nakayoshi
Needles: US7 and US8

GREAT pattern - online help if you get stuck, but you won't.

Yes, you do have a beautiful niece in a beautiful sweater! That sweater is adorable! If my friends would just have one kid instead of two at a time, I'd make them one in a heartbeat. However, knitting two of those jackets at a time gives me pause.
They are totally worth a repost (is that a word?) both the adorable little girl and the beautiful sweater!
Capitalize Southern accent, yup.

That's a great sweater. Looks like it was one she could wear for a while too, start with it almost long and coat-like with rolled up sleeves, grow into it as a regular cardigan. Winner of a project.
p.s. Happy New Year!
