I love those sweaters. would love to do the queen of hearts for my 2 year old girl. Is that a book or magazine you got the patterns from. does the pattern go to a two year old size.

Thank you 
The pattern is in a book called "The Treasury of Rowan Knits", it's a huge collection of Rowan patterns from various designers. It costs 39.95 on Amazon, but i think that it's worth it. All the children patterns have a big range of sizes, but the sizes are huge, so you need to make a smaller size to fit your daughter.

Wow, what gorgeous sweaters, and what wonderful gifts! I love the "heart" sweater -- the color, the styling, everything about it! Lovely work.

Thank you! Though i made size 6-8 yrs and he's already 8 yrs old, it was huge! But i think the color was good for him - neutral and goes with everything. He's not into fancy clothes  . It's an easy sweater, really easy and because the yarn was so great to knit with, i could knit without looking. I was so tired and stressed knitting it, thinking i won't make it till the flight, i was falling asleep while knitting and the funny thing - I kept knitting while snoozing  !

WONDERFUL! WONDERFUL! WONDERFUL! Oh, those two sweaters are just wonderful! Oh, I guess I already said that!
I know whatcha mean about yarn that's splitty! In those instances, I change to ADDI needles. Their blunt tips help decrease the splitting.
Thanks again for the photos!!

Thank you I don't have Addi's, so i had to fight through it with the KPO's. Man, did my hubby feel sorry for me! He asked why was i cursing so much and i showed him, so he was really understanding . I have three more balls left of this yarn and i don't know if i ever want to knit with it, though it is really beautiful.
