I finished it at 11:54 last night. The picture does not do the sweater justice. The varigation is also not as harsh in real life. I made lots of mistakes, went away from the pattern. And I've learned I need more practice on large needles. WOW do I sound like a downer! I'm just letting you know all its imperfections. heh
I'm pretty pleased with it.
I'm looking for small yellow buttons for it.
Here is the pattern:

I have three more babies to knit it for. What color should I make it in next?
And thanks to all you KHers who helped me out on this one!

:cheering: I think you did a great job. Sweaters are not that easy to do. I love the colors in it too. As for your next, yellow is always nice for babies, works for either. Keep up the good work :thumbsup:

I'd say make it in a purple, white, or yellow. Too cute! :heart:

Candace,
It turned out great!! I love it! :thumbsup:
The other two are going to be for boys or girls? Id say greenish would be good for either... I am working now on matching booties... ;)
Have you tried Joann's for the buttons? Thats where I found the turtles and bears...

Thanks everybody!
Well one baby we know is a girl (purple or yellow), the other two are mysteries. :) For now anyway. They are early yet, so we will see.
This one is for a baby whose sex is also unknown. So the color is a little risky, and I'm considering green buttons.
If one of these babies coming up is a boy, I would like to find another similar pattern.
Again, thanks everybody.
