last thursday my youngest sister had her baby, which means i have another sweet nephew. a warm snuggly sweater was definitely in order. something that would keep him cuddled up good when i head back home to minnesota.
this is the baby shepherd's jacket (rav link) by cheryl andrews knit up in some lovely baltic blue peace fleece.
couldn't you just stare at him all day long?
i can. which is why i have to go now.

Congratulations! Another gorgeous baby to be wrapped up in gorgeous knitwear!
