A Fun Afternoon

Due to extreme laziness on my part I have not sewed buttons on my Grace which took me months to knit and months to block. However, I finally got around to weaving in the ends and decided since I usually don't button my sweaters anyway this was not going to stop me from wearing it.
 
The next problem...photographing myself.
I don't have a tripod doohickey and photographing a whole sweater always poses a
So this afternoon harbored a great experiment to solve this problem.
I enlisted my lovely, genius, amazing five (AND A HALF, as she is always quick to point out) year old bebe to take pictures of her mama wearing the Grace cardigan.
The results:  
 "Hi Mama! What are you looking at, by the way? You need to look at me."
 
"Okay."
"Where are the buttons mama?"
"Oh, I forgot to put them on."
"It would look better with buttons."
"Yeeeeeees....."
"Okay Mama, I don't like looking at your back".
Not sure what she meant. 
Being a top model is tiring.
"Make a silly face mama!"

I love my new-ish sweater!
The Heritage sock yarn is easy to knit with and makes for a super soft and cozy sweater.
For such a light knit it's very warm, and the color is vibrant and makes me happy.
I love the lace, the tiny garter detail, and I loved knitting it.
Knitting a sock yarn sweater is a serious time investment,
 but this sure was a fun way to celebrate finishing it!
My little buddy photographer! On the go!
