Baby oh Baby!

One baby sweater down, one to go.

The King Cole Aran baby jacket, pattern 2557, size 2.  It's kind of an old pattern, I think.  The pockets are so cute and the buttons (from Knitorious) are perfect.  I did have a customer tell me that while she likes the sweater just fine, she'd never give anything done in that ugly color to a baby.  To which I smiled and said thanks...  More pics here on Ravelry.

I know it's outside of the norm, but I still think it'll be darling on a 2 yr old boy digging in the rocks at a playground.  So there.

I bought more Dream in Color Classy to do a girly sweater for the next baby.  And I do have to say I'm glad none of these much awaited wonders belongs to me.  Thank goodness!  Not that I don't just love babies 'cause I do.  (Read the Harlot today?)  And I absolutely don't mind all but the most strident baby noises in most places.  I'm usually just glad I'm not the one at whom the baby is fussing.  I always think that baby fussing bothers the parents more than the rest of us, but apparently I'm mistaken on that count.

My comment on the post was just that - I get more stressed over my kid fussing and fidgeting than the people around us.

Who said that? I'll pinch them the next time I see them. It is a great color and a great sweater. So cute.

Hey, I like that color! A lot of depth.

My public problems with children occur when they whine, or when they scream. Those 2-3 year-olds who scream just to hear themselves -- can't stand that -- it hurts my eardrums!

I actually really love that colorway. I never liked the traditional baby colors myself. I mean just how much pink and blue clothing should a baby wear. The sweater came out beautiful!

I think its a very cute sweater and color and to each its own. That customer needs a reminder on that perhaps LOL
