This is the front. I'm working on the robin redbreast and butterfly that my 7-year-old granddaughter requested for the back, along with the ladybugs across the bottom. She has also requested ladybugs across the wrists on the long sleeves. A budding designer!
When my 3-year-old granddaughter saw me working, she too requested a sweater. That book, Style Your Own Kids' Knits by Kate Buller, has given me five years of bonding with granddaughters already. We spent several delicious minutes looking at all the possibilities and she chose birds (the "muver and fahver") and a border of baby birds. We went to the yarn store to pick out the main color and she decided on white: maybe not so practical for someone whose main diet is pizza and spaghetti, eaten with both hands at once, but definitely suitable for the climate.
