I'm in love with the newest sweater I knitted for my son.

I

His favorite color is green, so he loves it too! It fits exactly how I planned - a little big so he's got room to grow. He's not yet 3, so it should fit all winter and I'm hoping next fall too. I do kind of wish I'd gone a size down in needles just because it's so stretchy at this gauge, but that also means it's super soft and easy to get on an off.

My Ravelry Project is here.

The pattern is S8653 Sweater and Hat/Pulli und Mütze and it's a little confusing, just because the syntax is a little different due to the German translation, but it's nothing too difficult to figure out if you're familiar with knitting cables. It's inexpensive on Ravelry, but I found it free from Lovecrafts. I'll probably make the hat too, just haven't gotten around to it.

Yarn is Knit Picks Stroll, which is wonderfully soft. I'd bought it years ago for a project for myself, but never used it and now I've forgotten what I was planning on making. So I finally knit from my stash instead of buying new!
