Three days in the car with 3 small people, a husband and a cat was sure to drive me batty and I needed something to keep me sane.
Knitting in the car |
I knew that we were moving somewhere that never saw the cold temperatures I was used to, so I needed to find a pattern that would work for "Winter" in Texas.
After searching and searching and searching on Ravelry, I decided on Shalom. I love this pattern. I am going to make myself another one for next year. It is that great of a pattern.
I wear is sweater everywhere I go. I wear it with long sleeve shirts and it is just perfect.
I have enough yarn left over that I think I will either make some longies for the baby for next winter, or a sweater for one of the kids. I haven't decided yet. I am still not sure I ever want to knit sweaters for my children again...not after last time.
So, here are the specifics:
Yarn: Cascade Eco+
Colorway: 2453
Needles: Knit Picks US 10
Pattern: Shalom
You can find me on Ravelry too, I am PrairieMama (go figure!)
If you make one for you, please let me know, it is such a fun, quick and easy knit. Great for beginners!!
Oh and by the way....that's my 25 week belly. First belly picture. I am huge, I know. :)

You look SO GOOD. That sweater is ever so flattering, and with the cute long-sleeved striped tee, it's even better! Actually, you don't look huge. You look great pregnant. I hope if I ever have a baby, I can look as good as that, because really, you look great.
