A little side project with leftover sock yarn. My usual baby cardigan pattern with contrasting ribbing and neck line, super easy and quick. I enjoyed knitting it even though the stitches are so small but the sock yarn knits up smoothly and it was done fast.
Unfortunately I knit it a bit late so Baby S. didn't really get to wear it before the summer and now it is obviously too small. Maybe another lucky baby will receive it as a gift when the opporunity arises, it's too nice to end up in a box somewhere!
And last point of criticism: the button holes should have been moved one stitch further away from the edge of the button band. As you can see in the image, the buttons end up too close to the edge and that makes it look wonky.
So knitting the same pattern many times still teaches you new things sometimes.
