When my daughter and granddaughter and I went to California in October, I visited a great little knit shop in Rocklin called Filati's. I loved all the knitted samples hanging about the store. Windy and Ember saw this little Snoopy's Crayons sweater and fell in love with it. It is made with Schaefer Yarn (Hand Painted Luxury Fibers) using Schaefer's Elaine Child's Cardigan pattern #111. It is 99% merino wool and 1% nylon. I used size 10 needles for the seed stitch borders and a size 11 circular needle for the body. One skein made this size 1 sweater. At $40/skein I am glad I didn't wait until Ember wore size 2! I had a bit of a challenge with the M1s until a new knitting buddy named Lynn helped me out with the left and right slanting technique. It will be a gift for my granddaughter on her first birthday on December 5th. I finished it this morning...just under the wire.
