I started knitting the middle sweater, a 4T merino/cashmere blend, during our summer vacation. I just loved the subtle variations of this yarn, with its greys, taupe and off white. It's called Whiskers, from Madelinetosh and is just a dream to knit with. I liked it so much, that upon my return from vacation, I ordered the same colorway in a lace weight to make the infant sweater in the foreground. Given that these yarns are hand-painted, you never quite get the same look. Different types of yarn take the dyes differently. The infant sweater is 100% merino wool and done in a sweet lace pattern. The sweater on the left, knit in Madelinetosh Candlewick, is one of my favorite. It's brighter than a wheat color and golden, but not too much. It really goes well with khakis, jeans, greys and I really love it with navy. These are such great staples to add to any kid's wardrobe for the fall. I love the simplicity of the look!
