I finished this cute little cardigan for baby Ruby just in time for Christmas. Here are the details:
Pattern: Betty Lou Lace Cardigan (Ravelry link), from Vintage Baby Knits
Yarn: Colinette Jitterbug, in the colourway Whirly Fig
Needles: 2.75mm
Notes: This pattern was a pleasure to knit. The lace pattern is easy and quick, and the whole cardigan progressed satisfyingly quickly. The i-cord ties are very sweet, and the bobbles really make increase the cuteness factor. All in all, a pattern, and a book, that I highly recommend if you are in the baby-knitting market.
I don’t tend to go in much for photo-effects, but I think that this cardigan really should be seen like this:

so sweet! that lace is really pretty, without being too girly-girlish, but the pompoms just bring it right back (in a good way!)
it is incredibly cute and interesting too
Such a gorgeous knit – oh to be having a girl baby! I do love the B&W photo too, you are very right, that’s how it needs to be seen!!
That is a lovely cardigan. I’m sure she (or her parents) appreciate it, especially in this weather.
It’s lovely! What a sweet baby knit.
Thank you so much for your kind wishes for my family.
Hugs

So very cute! While I love little boys, having had some of them myself, I do love the girl’s clothes. Brilliant job.
it’s quite lovely! my Mothers name was Bettie Louise … it was nice to see her name, even though it’s spelled differently. I’ve been thinking of her a lot lately … made me look at the entry and I’m glad I did. Starting to knit baby things for my son and his wife. They haven’t got any plans at the moment but, heck … it’ll be fun to have lots done when they finally begin a family!thanks so much for sharing!
Oh I love that! The pom poms are just perfect. I bet she looks lovely in it.
That looks gorgeous!
Oh, it is just precious. Lovely details and the finishing is perfect. A cherished knit, for sure~~
Oh, that is so sweet. Ruby will look winsome in it.
That’s lovely, the pom pom’s really make it.
Oh super cute! With multiple friends hatching I have some serious baby knitting to be doing this year so I’ll have to check that book out.
it is adorable.
That is an adorable sweater!
Oh that’s so sweet!
Gorgeous! I have doing a little baby knitting too.
