In love FO sure

It was done in less than a week.

I didn't run out of yarn.

And I'm crazy in love with this sweater.
I've made last minute arrangements to take a trip to the fiber revival. Anyone else going?

Talk about Pride and Joy! Both the sweater and the child must inspire both in you. Love 'em!

Kate, I've sent several emails to you recently and they keep coming back to me. I'm not sure whether you receive them. I wanted to say that I hoped you followed Leonard Cohen all the way home, humming 'Suzanne' or 'The Sister of Mercy'!

It's so cute!!!

Gorgeous sweater, love the color...hoping that a pattern will follow...
Posted by: Katie at August 20, 2007 11:26 AM
fantastic - the yarn fits the sweater perfectly, glad you had enough to finish. Looks like you have quite the knit-wear model there too.
Posted by: heather at August 20, 2007 11:06 AM
love love love... gorgeous sweater, yarn and babe. Glad to hear you're cherishing them all.
Posted by: di at August 20, 2007 07:21 AM
Absolutely.Adorable. I love love love the color!
Posted by: Kate at August 20, 2007 12:13 AM
Tadpole's sweater is beautiful- more so in person. It was great meeting you again and geting time to hang with you in our spinning class.
Posted by: Manise at August 19, 2007 04:10 PM
Just like everybody else, I love this little sweater, and the photos of Tadpole are so sweet.
Posted by: alison at August 19, 2007 01:47 PM
Tadpole in that sweater was a wonderful addition to the Revival yesterday! Can you imagine if we all had such energy? :D
Posted by: Marcy at August 19, 2007 01:35 PM
Oh, the sweater is darling, and the tadpole is getting so big! They are both beautiuful.
Posted by: susan at August 19, 2007 01:27 AM
OOH! Love the sweater!!! It's beautiful! Looks wonderful on her!!!
Posted by: Cindy at August 18, 2007 11:59 PM
This is such a great project, I'd love to knit it for my 17 month old - you'll have to publish the pattern and let us know when you do!
Posted by: Rebecca at August 18, 2007 05:22 PM
Absolutely precious!
Posted by: Sarah Carey at August 18, 2007 01:33 PM
Cute sweater, FO sure, but I'm in love with the tadpole who's wearing it!
Posted by: Karma at August 18, 2007 01:17 AM
The sweater is adorable. Turned out very cute, and just in time for cooler weather.
Posted by: Karen at August 18, 2007 12:51 AM
Delurking to add another plea for the pattern. My little one is just about the same size and I've been looking all over for something just like that. I had just about decided to try to make up something up, but now I'm going to be waiting to hear if you will be releasing this pattern anytime soon. Please, please!
Posted by: momobinski at August 18, 2007 12:34 AM
Both lovely! (The sweater and Tadpole!)
Posted by: Andrea (noricum) at August 17, 2007 04:22 PM
THAT is positively and entirely darling, Kate!
Posted by: Jen at August 17, 2007 12:35 PM
Another plea for that gorgeous pattern! It is exactly what I've been looking for. I have the yarn I want to use for a sweater for my niece, but I haven't been able to find a pattern I like. PLEASE tell us how we can get our hands on that pattern. Also, I have to agree - what a gorgeous child, you couldn't ask for a better model!
Posted by: Anne at August 17, 2007 12:24 PM
I am so in love with this sweater! I love the pattern, I love the color, it's just perfect.
I tried to google the pattern but with no luck. Where on earth did you find such a great pattern?
Posted by: Preita at August 17, 2007 11:02 AM
OMG, Tadpole is so big! And so cute! I love the sweater.
Posted by: Frarochvia at August 17, 2007 09:08 AM
See you tomorrow! Are you taking any classes?
Posted by: Kathy at August 17, 2007 07:39 AM
I can't believe how big she's gotten! Congrats on an adorable sweater on an even more adorable kid!
Posted by: Jennifer at August 16, 2007 10:00 PM
Lovely sweater and lovely little girl!
Posted by: eyeleen at August 16, 2007 09:19 PM
adorable! I've got some handspun screaming to be that sweater (literally, screaming. It's acid green!). Tadpole is too cute :)
Posted by: kaitlyn at August 16, 2007 06:10 PM
Hey...
Well, adorable like everyone else says. Where can I find a pattern for something like that??
I'd pay you for it!
Jen
Posted by: Jen at August 16, 2007 05:10 PM
Where does the time go? I can't believe how big your "baby" girl is! The sweater is great and looks great on her-I love the color.
Posted by: Jeanie at August 16, 2007 12:25 PM
oh my goodness! the girl and the sweater are tooooo adorable!
Posted by: kellie at August 16, 2007 11:55 AM

Posted by: stinkerbell at August 16, 2007 11:51 AM
Oh.My.God. It's adorable as is Tadpole :) And that IS your handspun, yeah?
Just lovely!
Posted by: Miriam at August 16, 2007 11:13 AM
Tadpole is just adorable...and that sweater is perfect! :)
Posted by: Ruinwen at August 16, 2007 10:15 AM
Yup to Fiber Revival (my first) but I live nearby. Every time I see that "I should have had a V8" commercial where the child bops the mom on the forehead, I think -- Is that Tadpole?
Posted by: Mary K. in Rockport at August 16, 2007 09:25 AM
OMG - the tadpole is getting so big! The sweater is just perfect for her. Simply perfect.
I have to tell you - I had a lady in the yarn shop on the weekend who bought yarn to make your Cinnibar pullover.
Posted by: Steph VW at August 16, 2007 08:03 AM
That is HER color!
Nicely done. I just finished Max's raglan too but he won't be big enough to wear it until this winter.
Posted by: Aimee at August 16, 2007 04:46 AM
FAWN!
Posted by: valentina at August 16, 2007 02:47 AM
Wow, Kate, that's a gorgeous sweater and Tadpole it bewitching!
Posted by: Anne at August 15, 2007 11:53 PM
That's a great color on Tadpole ... so cute.
I'll be there Saturday. Hope to see you!
Posted by: Ruth at August 15, 2007 10:48 PM

Posted by: maryse at August 15, 2007 10:35 PM
Um. Hello? Where did that big girl come from? You have a BABY!?
Posted by: scout at August 15, 2007 10:20 PM
Your daughter is gorgeous. nice sweater too! i always knit faster when i think im going to run out of yarn! clearly, it worked in your case.
Posted by: Karla at August 15, 2007 10:12 PM

Great sweater. Tadpole is the cutest.
Posted by: Emilee at August 15, 2007 05:38 PM
Yes I agree with all of the above!!
Posted by: Gudrun at August 15, 2007 05:30 PM
That turned out great, and Tadpole is SO beautiful!! I'll have to work on mine some more -I have so many projects right now...
Posted by: Paula at August 15, 2007 05:23 PM
Wow, it's hard to decide which is more gorgeous - the sweater or your daughter. They suit each other perfectly. She's getting so big and grown up looking! Lovely work.
Posted by: Elizabeth at August 15, 2007 05:22 PM
Wow, I love it! Makes me rethink my hatred of orange!
Posted by: Kim at August 15, 2007 05:00 PM
Beautiful little girl! And the sweater is gorgeous too, love the colours.
Posted by: Cybele at August 15, 2007 04:52 PM
Aww, tadpole is getting so grown up. The sweater looks great and suits her really well. She looks comfie in it too, no small feat.
Posted by: Marnie at August 15, 2007 04:48 PM
OMG- too cute!!
She is so big- like a kid all of a sudden!
Yes, I am going to try to make it for the fiber revival... I dunno if I can do any of the classes but I think I am just gonna go hang out!

Posted by: Mama Urchin at August 15, 2007 03:52 PM
We will be just south of you in Boston this weekend. Tadpole is getting so tall!! Beautiful sweater. I am jealous...
Posted by: Jen at August 15, 2007 03:48 PM
Very sweet little sweater. You better have another baby so you can get more use out of it. :)
Have a great time at Fiber Revival. I'm terribly jealous.
Posted by: Jessica at August 15, 2007 03:37 PM
My goodness, the cute! My eyes! My eyes!
Posted by: Elspeth at August 15, 2007 03:35 PM
Aw, jeez, Kate! She's just getting cuter and cuter! And the sweater is perfect for her.
Posted by: Cara at August 15, 2007 03:33 PM
She is so beautiful! I love the look on her face in the last picture.
The subtle color changes in the yarn are gorgeous in that simple sweater, too.
Posted by: Brynne at August 15, 2007 03:31 PM
Oh, she looks adorable in that beautiful sweater! Great work!
Posted by: beverly at August 15, 2007 03:26 PM
