When I was knitting this little Embers sweater, I used a swatching technique that I call "swatching on the needles". ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Babies, babies, babies! Em and I are both knitting for the coming wave of little ones among our family and friends. You know we've got a few Beloved bonnets on the go! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Blush, from @labienaimee, might just be the perfect spring colour. It's sort of a neutral, but with a whole pale and pretty rainbow too; a delight in every stitch! I knit the Penny sweater in Blush, and the beautiful Aimée herself is modelling.Babies are hard to keep still at this age, but I wanted a pic of the back of this cardigan anyway Emma!Tutorial Tuesday: How to recycle yarn from second-hand sweaters.Are you ready to take your ‘first stitch’ in colourwork knitting?
