    About

    I had a ball of Libby left over from another project so made another one of this pattern which I really enjoyed before, this time the next size up. I used a stash yarn for the stripe which looked like purple in the ball but was more grey when it was knitted? On this size the stripes didn't work out well and I had to re-do the bottom edge (cant recall now whether I made it shorter?) so that there wasn't a large chunk of 'grey' on the bottom. I was happy with it in the end.
    I made the short sleeve version as my daughter (who had the first one) said that these are much easier to get over a long sleeve babygro on a young baby.
    NB pattern is also available free on ravelry/marianna's lazy days

        Thanks Helen. I think I would have preferred it, if the contrast was more of a purple?

        Yes, it's definitely one of my go-to's for a newborn girl! Ironically my daughter likes the other cardi I made in this yarn....the Cygnet one? Says its lasted well and easy to get on?
