Oh for cute
Pattern: Knitting Pure & Simple baby top-down raglan. I knit the largest size on #7 needles to make up for using DK weight yarn instead of the worsted-weight the pattern calls for. Rolled collar, ribbed cuffs and hem. I bound off the edges with a #9 for extra stretch.
Yarn: Less than 2 skeins of Brown Sheep Cotton Fleece in color Wild Sage.
Verdict: Speaks for itself, doesn't it? I need to make more of these. Top-down construction lends itself well to stripes, and I have a fair amount of Cotton Fleece to use up. (This would also be fantastic in aran-weight cashmerino.) Only problem is that this size fits him perfectly, so I may have to add a few stitches in the front and back and a few more rows on the sleeves and hem in order to get something that will fit him next month.

I can't believe how much Julian has grown since I've seen him last! Looking forward to seeing you both again soon!
Oh my cuteness! That turned out fantastic! And just in time for the colder weather.
