A month or two back, I had seen this beautiful Bloomsbury pattern for adults.  I really loved it but with the growing condition of my belly, I was in no mood to consider knitting it. Then, just last week during a lost battle to insomnia I was trolling Ravelry and found it’s also available in kid sizes 6 months – 8 years! I was very excited, because I had 1 skein of Madelinetosh Vintage in Rainwater left over from finishing Girasole – just perfect number of yards, yarn weight and color.

The pattern was really fabulous so if you have someone in your life from age 6 months – 8 years I’d recommend this knit.  I started it on Thursday 12/27 and had it done by Friday evening 12/28. I was able to memorize the lace chart about 1/2 way through which helped it move along quickly. This will definitely be a knit that I revisit as Baby Stanley grows!
