FO: Caramel and honey.


I finished this little pullover some time ago and I must say that so far it's my favorite  project for our little boy who will be joining our family in November (well, I haven't knit that many garments for him yet). I was inspired by Fisherman's Pullover by talented Veera  Välimäki (I love the look of her pullover and I will definitely knit a proper version of it at some point).

I used sock yarn for this project, a whole 110g skein of Colinette Jitterbug that I bought impulsively last year while browsing in Loop, London. It knits up beautifully. The colourway is nice too, it reminds me of chocolate, caramel and honey. And I found some cute buttons again (though it took me few days of intensive search to find them).



Project notes:
Yarn: Colinetter Jitterbug, 1 skein
Needles: 3mm/ US 2½

Happy knitting!
