This pattern has been neatly tucked away in my knitting notebook since I first came across it in this book in 2008.  So naturally when we found out last fall that we were pregnant with Nathaniel, out it came.  Not so sure why, if it was the yarn or the pattern, but I had a really hard time getting into a smooth knitting rhythm with this sweater.  I must have frogged it three times before I got it right.  For me, it was one of those patterns that was hard to imagine coming together until all the pieces were knit and laid out before me.  In the end it came out beautiful and was worth making.  I love seeing him in it!
