So I’ve been slacking. Not on the knitting front, or designing, or spinning. I’ve done a lot of each of those lately. Can’t share most of it with you (see: designing), but there’s been a lot of it. No, I’ve been slacking because one of the wonderful women I share my classroom with is pregnant. Like, due in April pregnant. Like, I’ve had a lot of time to plan for this pregnant. And what have I knit for her? Not a stitch.
I have this:
but no idea what to do with it. It’s Berroco Comfort DK, and while it looks awfully thin for DK to me, Ravelers don’t seem to have had any trouble getting gauge. I have 356 yards (326 meters) of it and no inspiration. Every time I go to browse Rav I get annoyed and frustrated by the number of non-babies that come up when I search “newborn”, and then I conveniently find something better to do. Help?

That one always gets some rec’s! I actually wasn’t sure I had enough yarn for a baby sweater; good to know!

I like Design C – Textured Cardigans, Kanoko Baby Cardigan and Mar Baby Cardiagn. Can you tell I like textured cardigans?

Excellent; I will look those up! I like texture too.

I made one of those for the last pregnant coworker! She loved it too.
