FO: Garter Stitch Baby Cardi

I’m never sure if it’s appropriate to make something for a classmate who’s having a child. Yet I keep doing it. Something about the bond between people who are suffering through a class together makes it seem appropriate to congratulate them on the birth of a child. Right?

Appropriateness of the gift aside, this project drove me crazy. I’m working on two lace-centric projects alongside this one so the garter followed by stockinette drove me batty. Soooo boring. Thankfully, the cotton-silk blend Frog Tree yarn is a dream to work with and the result (which will eventually get buttons) is adorable. I’ll certainly make this pattern again though I’ll put more interesting projects aside while I’m working on it!
