I finally sewed the buttons on the sweater I knitted for my grandson! This is the "Positive Chi" pattern that Millard designed last fall. LOVE it!
It's a beautifully designed pattern, great fun to knit. I may try to re-knit it in a larger size...which means adapting the pattern...(I knitted the largest size listed)...because I think it's "timeless"...and my grandson Nicholas will want it when he's bigger as well.
