Little Leaf

There is something about leaves..  I love their shapes.   A pattern with knitted leaves nearly always catches my eye.  So, when I saw this little sweater, I knew I had to knit it.

P1010538

Pattern: Cascade by Raya Budrevich
Yarn:  Ball and Skein Providence
Needles: 7 US

 

This little sweater is knit in one piece, from the top down.  It was fun watching the leaves emerge, as they are knit along with the body of the sweater.  The little buttonholes are incorporated into the pattern.  

It was finished just in time for the Fiber Festival of New England, earlier this month.  Tomorrow it will be sent to my niece.  It should be a perfect weight sweater for all this warm fall weather.
