Baby Boy Cardigan

Baby Boy Cardigan

Pattern:  Knitting Pure and Simple: Easy Baby Cardigan (free-pdf)
Designer:  Diane Soucy
Yarn: 
Duet Sock Yarn - A Swell Yarn Shop
Color:  Paradise
Needles:  4.25mm Clover bamboo circulars

Hat Pattern: based loosely on Beginner's Fair Isle Baby Hat (free)
(I used the pattern for the numbers only for a 6 month size)

This is a gift for one of my caregivers who is awaiting the birth of a grandson this month.  I love the way the Duet Sock yarn worked up in this pattern.  I made the 6 month size and did the collar version as opposed to the hood, as I was afraid I would not have enough yarn.  I think you could complete the sweater with hood if you knit a size 6 month or smaller, as I had enough left over to make a hat and there was still some yarn of the multi-color yarn left.
