Lovely Lucy

Shelly K. has made an absolutely stunning version of the Chronicles of Narnia Baby Cardigan! Here's her version, in really classy colors, and sized up to 18 months by using size 8 (5mm) needles:


Just beautiful work, Shelly K! I think that it looks even nicer than the original. I love the way she used coordinating colors for the insides of all the flowers. Here's her Ravelry page, if you're on.

If you'd like to take a look at some other finished projects using my patterns, here's a list -- everyone has done such an awesome job!


In other news, my free baby patterns are now available as PDF downloads from Ravelry, and you don't have to be a member to get them. If you are a PDF-loving kind of person, there are links now on all the pattern pages, but here they all are in one place too:

Meanwhile, thanks for the kind comments on the previous post. I was a little huffy myself when I wrote it, so sorry about that!

Errata, and some huffiness

Since I neurotically check my blog stats, I noticed there was a little flurry of commentary about the eyelet yoke baby cardigan recently on livejournal. I have fixed a few superficial math errors in the pattern and reposted it. Thanks for the careful proofreading, people -- math is clearly not my strong suit.

I can't help but notice that the tone of a few of those comments was a little judgmental and huffy. I certainly don't claim to be posting free patterns that are perfectly proofread -- that's one of the reasons I offer them for free. I apologize for the confusion, but remember that I am human after all (meaning I make mistakes and also that I take comments to heart).

If you have a question or concern, please, email me and ask! I'm always totally happy to help you out!
