Yarn Along – Puerperium Cardigan

Talking about Baby Stuff one should, but can never get enough of.

For Baby Number 4 I will definitely try to buy as little as possible. We should really have enough of everything, in all colours and sizes. However, who could resist knitting few of those Baby Basics.

Having seen the Puerperium Cardigans made by Ginny, the yarn almost jumped on my needles. Once into the raglan pattern (with markers), it is really fast to knit. Especially with those short arms that I love.

Find the original pattern by Kelly Brooker here for free. It's perfect, except mine turned out too big. No harm done. We can always use that one. And I already cast on with a smaller size needles…

I used the same memorable, handspun yarn as for my Tea Leaves.

Oh, I can already see a couple of Cardigans cuddling up in January on the sofa.

Reading "Mut für Zwei" ("Courage for Two"), a book written by a German mother who decided to travel with the Trans-Siberian Railway with her eleven month old son. Very interesting.

Wenn man nach den ersten drei Kindern gehen kann, so erwarten wir weder ein Zniachterl (Kleines) noch ein Riesenbaby. Insofern ist das Puerperium Jackerl eine Spur zu gross geworden, aber das nächste ist schon auf den Nadeln.

Für alle Fälle. Ich will diesmal eh nicht mehr viel kaufen, es sollte von allem genügend da sein, dafür darf ich ruhig noch ein bisschen stricken.

Die Wolle ist noch von meiner Tea Leaves Jacke übrige.

Hach, ich seh uns beide schon in unseren Jackerln am Sofa kuscheln im Winter…
