Clara's Knitting: A Goldenrod Cardigan for Daisy


Clara just finished this sweater for Daisy, so even though this is the hottest day of the year so far, the sweater is getting a wearing. It's knitted in a slightly variegated goldenrod merino, from this Ravelry pattern


The sleeves are *supposed* to be 3/4. The pattern says nothing about turquoise buttons though.

  1. What a great little cardigan! BTW girls, I do admire the goldenrod and turquoise -- those are the colours of our little art shop.

  6. Clara, you did a most excellent job! I am most jealous of your knitting ability. My husband told me that I should take knitting and embroidery classes, but have yet to get around to it. I've been inspired by Clara's dress and now the sweater.

  8. So funny. There's a "you might also like" link to a blog post in December--in which Daisy is wearing a summer sweater that Clara knit her in winter.

    Knitting whims know no season.

    Both are beautiful!

  11. I love it when older children use their powers for the good of the younger. And Clara's knitting powers are considerable.
