Here is the jumper for Eoin finally finished.  I did knit the hood that goes with it, but will put that to one side for now.  i'm not sure if he'll like hoodies by that stage or not, so it's knitted and ready, just not attached as yet.

WOW! Fantastic job! You've got some mad knitting skillz! I look forward to seeing a picture of him in it.

thanks. It will be a while before he actually wears it. i always try to knit things a few sizes larger than what he currently is, so if the project gets stalled, then i can still finish it and it still fit him.

Cute little sweater! I'd love it as a hoody but in the end I guess that'll be up to Eoin. ^^

well i'll have the hood ready to go, but i don't want to put all the effort into the sweater and then have him not wear it if he doesn't like hoodies. I'll just have to remember to save a small amount of yarn somewhere i'll actually find it if needed.

Beautiful! Love the color!

My husband has grey to hazel eyes and i have amber to hazel eyes. Eoin's eye colour is becoming a hazel colour too, so i'm looking for colours that go with that.

It also helps that greens and browns are my favourite colour

The jumper is absolutely adorable!

I have had your b_b pattern pinned to my cork board for the better part of a year, even though I'm not part of the swap. Maybe a little house will have to head your way from the Lone Star State!

Btw, the Tim Tams fairy arrived. There are very happy Os in my house!

i've started a stash buster project for his next knitted item. it's a knitted argyle vest but i'll be using left overs for the background.

i think the ball i am starting with came from my US trip. It's a mix of hazel, green and light browns
