Liam’s Top Down Raglan

April 7, 2008 By Mindy

7 Apr

I started a sweater for Liam a little more than a month ago.  It’s a top down raglan.  If you are sweater-phobic, do a top down raglan.  It couldn’t be easier.

I am almost finished with the body of the sweater.  There’s just a few more inches to go.  Since this knit entirely in the round, it is my mindless TV knitting.

It will be big enough for him to wear next winter and possibly the winter after that.  He picked out the yarn.  He made a great choice, choosing something that brings out his eyes.

Also, that top picture?  The one where his hair is out of control?  He got a haircut last week.  He looks like a little boy now.  Not a baby with terrible hair.

    What a great sweater. The blue is perfect for Liam’s eyes.

    I love Bird Hair (that’s what we called my son’s fly away hair).
