This sweater for the granddaughter has been finished for a while. I was hoping to add a pic of her wearing it, but so far no luck.
Pattern: Ribbed Baby Jacket by Debbie Bliss
Yarn: Cashmerino Aran in 300050 (lilac)
Needles: US8
Modifications: See my notes on Ravelry.
And now that she has worn it a bit, it has become apparent that the button placement is too low. I can fix that by adding a second button a bit higher. The sweater has plenty of room for horizontal growth, so in the future I may need to figure out how to lengthen it.

Ribbon-Edged Cardigan...
... without the ribbon edging. I find seaming hard enough without making things more difficult for myself.
Pattern: Ribbon-Edged Cardigan, by Debbie Bliss
Yarn: Debbie Bliss Baby Cashmerino
Needles: US2 and US3
Modifications: no ribbon edging
I don't like sewing buttons on, either, and this sweater has SEVEN, causing another delay.
Even though I measured the Granddaughter beforehand and knit to gauge, there is always a bit of worry over whether the garment will fit. This one is a bit large, which for a growing child is perfect. If I were to knit this one again, I would make it a bit longer, though.
