Love for the Milo

-
A is now a month old. (A month? Already?) The postpartum fog has lifted, we're getting a little more sleep. C has stopped asking us to put "baby back in" and started getting upset if her sister isn't with us at times when she usually is.

I've also gotten to do a little knitting. Finally.

A year ago, I knitted two sleeveless sweaters for C. 


Two sweaters, different yarn weights, both with the owl pattern down the left side. C has just recent stopped hoo-hooting and pointing to her belly when anyone mentions a sweater.


While she's actually lost a pound or two since then, she's grown several inches. She's gone from a chunk-toddler to a slim and graceful little girl.  She needed a sweater that went below her belly button. 


This pattern, the Milo, is a dream to work with and easy to customize. I look forward to knitting Milo sweaters for them as they grow. Perhaps they won't all have owls, but for now, we're cozy and warm in these simple little sweaters.
