Baby Sheep Sweater

This is a really cute sweater I couldn't resist making when I found out I was going to be a grandma again. I thought the grand child of a yarn shop owner should be dressed in a soft superwash pure merino wool sweater with little sheep on it. It also has little sheep buttons. The designer of the pattern Jennifer Little allowed us to use her great pattern for the kits. We are selling these kits  in the store and on the web site. They are selling fast.
One neat feature about this little sweater is knit on 5.5mm needles and with chunky yarn this will fit a 5 year old very nicely. Meka really wanted a sweater just like her new baby brother or sisters sweater. Meika's sweater needs another arm and button bands then it is finished. I will post a picture of her wearing it. You will have to wait until March to see the new arrival wearing his or her sweater. For now the store bear is wearing it.
