WiP Wednesday - birthday sweater and mittens

I'm still finishing up the mittens for the girls.  These are Lela's and using her requested yarn - some Lion felting wool we dyed.  I added another strand of cream for more warmth.  These were quick and satisfying to make - see here on Ravelry.

(One of Liv's red and blue mittens was promptly and accidentally washed.  Though it is still wearable it just won't do, so there will be a 7th mitten cast on this week.)

Also pictured is Lela's birthday sweater - she will be 5 in a few short (very short!) weeks.  How does it happen so quickly?  This I will never understand. 

This Sweetheart Cardigan is on size 6 needles with Cascade 220 wool.  My friend Haley helped me (read: she did it all) adapt the pattern for the larger yarn and needles.  So even though my tiny 4#15 baby will be 5, this is the 2T size.  I hope to put up more details on Ravelry as soon as Haley tells me what she did. 

Happy knitting!

Peace,
Carrie
