Ewan

Did you have a good sleep last night? I didn't.  I was up 'til 2 finishing Ewan.
I'm very pleased with the result - it was worth the sleep-deprivation.
Skip thinks it looks like a little 'Perry Como' sweater. But I think a cardigan is a very useful garment for a one-year-old.

I liked the various textures.
I modified the pattern by knitting from cuff to cuff to avoid an unsightly seam down the middle of the back. The finishing took me a while but it wasn't difficult.
The recipient's family oohed and aahed when it was opened at his birthday party this afternoon. Unfortunately, I wasn't there to see the gift being opened. I'm hoping the mother will send a photo of the birthday boy wearing the sweater.
