Yay, I finally tried the sweater on the babe and even got photos, all in the same day! Let’s pretend it isn’t nearly a month after the last end was woven in …
The pattern is Gavyn.
While I didn’t love everything about the pattern, or the knitting, I do think I quite like the finished sweater.
This was my first bottom-up sweater, my first non-raglan sweater. I made the 12-month size and added an inch to the length of the body of the sweater and about 3/4-inch to the sleeve length, because my boy is tall and long-torso-ed.
It doesn’t look as big on him (at 7 months) as I thought it was, as I was aiming for, but it will still hopefully fit him all this winter.
I used recycled sweater yarn, in 100 percent cotton; tripling the yarn gave me gauge on the recommended needle size.
I’m linking up with FO Friday and Fiber Arts Friday; visit these places if you want to see more projects! 
Cute!
It’s BEAUTIFUL! Not only do I want this for my boys, I want one for myself as well.
Wow, high praise!
I love it! It looks gorgeous on him!
The sweater and the baby are beautiful! Happy Fiber Arts Friday

What a fantastic sweater. And a great color, especially for the holidays.
Yeah, I’m really pleased with how it came out!
OMG!!!!! See–this is why I need to learn how to knit. Asa looks adorable (he is just so photogenic!) and I love the red.
Love it! I wish I had some talent in this department!
Ahh, love the sweater and it looks great on him!
