Joss Sweater by Rowan

Another finished sweater I credit to the SpringKnit-UpButton.jpg.
This half-finished sweater had been sitting around since last year. Once I realized it was going to be waaay to big for my mini, I just set it aside. I had no knowledge of carrying the yarn up the side at that point. All those yarn ends weren't very inviting. It's a bit big now, but with some funky leggings, it will be good to go or at the rate she is growing it will fit this winter.

Project Specs:
Pattern: Joss from A Treasury of Rowan Knits
Suggested Yarn:Rowan Handknit DK Cotton
Yarn Used: unmarked stash handed down from relative
(I know, I don't like to read that either.)
Needle Size: US 6 & 5
Gauge: 20st/4in

I love that oversized look on children, at least you know that she will get lots of wear out of it. She looks pretty happy with it doesn't she?

Looks good to me - the stripey bits are cute aren't they? What a lovely smile!

Looks great. Doesnt it feel good to finish a project sitting at the bottom of the closet for awhile? GOOD FOR YOU!

What an adorable sweater, and Kerrie is right kids do look really cute in big baggy clothes...

Great sweater! The KnitUp was such a cool idea. It's really helped people pull out those old projects and finish them up. This sweater looks the perfect size for your little one to grow into. It looks super on her. What a cutie!

Great sweater! Your mini is adorable and I ditto the remark about her looking like Raven-Simone. Both are cuties :)

It looks really good large! And at least she will get as much wear as possible that way :)
