Will UPDATE

Spoke Dad del Will tonight.

As a surprise for their two girls the dada didn't tell them that when they got home from school this afternoon Mama and Baby Will would be sitting in the sofa waiting for massive hellos, smiles and cuddles!

So a millionty twelve thank yous to all in the blogoverse who sent positive thoughts out into the ether, he is home and hopefully will just keep getting bigger and better from here on out.






On a somewhat related note I need YOUR help.

I bought a knitting magazine sometime in the Winter and it had a pattern for prem cardigans. Having successfully knitted one I verrrrry carefully hid the pattern from myself and now my friend has asked for just such a thing to keep our boy warm. In complete good friend mode (who can resist a trip to the bestest ever shop in the world?) I bought some indigo and flax Sublime soya cotton to make a stripey cardi but have NO IDEA where iIhave extremely safely put the @*&$%% pattern.


Here's the bit where you come in - does anyone have a simple stocking stitch cardi pattern for prem babies? Please would you be so kind as to share it with me?

Thanks again blogoverse :-)

    But sorry, no pattern I'm afraid! Good luck with that!

    Can't help you re the cardi though. Soz. Although...overmilkwood, she's knitted a rather lovely kimono baby cardi before (but don't ask me whether it was stocking stitch or not, I have no idea!). Go hunt her down www.overmilkwood.blogspot.com

  7. So pleased Will is home with his family - that's wonderful news.

    I don't have a pattern either, but could you maybe use a doll's pattern? Or size down a 'regular' baby's cardigan pattern?

    Sorry - I'm not much help, am I? :-(
