Right after I finished Oscar’s Wyatt, I begun to knit a cardigan for Capucine…
The pattern was in my pattern-to-knit-one-day list for a while : Arlo, by Michèle Wang in the BT Kids Collection from Brooklyn Tweeds and I used De Rerum Natura Gilliatt… I think this yarn has a perfect quality-price ratio for kids garnment !
I love the cables : they are so beautiful and intricate ! But it took me a long time to finish it… Between the moment I finished knitting the different parts and the moment I finally sewed them, one month had passed (during which I had knit myself a second Simply Linen…). Yeah ! I don’t like seams…
At first, I put lovely porcelain buttons but after a winter of hard use, we had to replace them. I’m a bit sad, but that means the next ones from this talented woman are for a sweater for myself as I don’t abuse my garnments as badly…
Capucine loves it ! She wore it during all Winter. She asks me know to make her a Campfire sweater and I must oblige her (for next winter) !
