Another Pink Sweater

I am still working my way through my purchase of the pink Patons Silk Bamboo, so I made another sweater and hat for Marine Corps Kids. 



I started out following this pattern, and I really like the design of the yoke.  Then when I got to the graph section, I had a lot of trouble interpreting the graph, so I improvised.  I really like the look and weight of the bottom of the skirt.  I finished the bottom of the sweater by repeating the pattern from the yoke, added ribbon ties (sewn in for safety) instead of buttons, and then created a cute cap to match.

I like the way this set turned out.  It will be going to Marine Corps Kids for one of our newborns.
