Elijah’s 2012 Birthday Sweater

It took me longer to finally get pictures and post about it than it did to knit it.  But here it finally is….

The first mama-designed birthday sweater to appear in this house!  But look out!  Now that the precedent has been set, I think I’m going to have some work to do!

It’s clearly baseball inspired.  What else would a sweater for this boy of mine be?  And after-all, he’s got to keep his pitching arm warm.

The entire fair isle pattern is comprised of interlocking home plates.

This was really a lot of fun to work on.

The yarn is Valley Yarns ‘Northampton’ in Dark Navy, Red and White.

Oh boy.

And ten is really a lot of fun too!
