Yes, I really have been knitting. Just not really blogging. Remember the twins and their April birthdays? I knit vests for them last year. This year I was more ambitious. I designed these perfect for California weather short-sleeved hoodies for them.
Introducing the MonkeyBoy Hoodie:
One MonkeyBoy:
and then Two MonkeyBoys:
and then my BigHeadBoy to model them:
and then of course, he needed his own: Three MonkeyBoys...
The ones for the twins were done with Rowan All Seasons Cotton on size 9 needles. A very fast knit, although I had some guesswork on the hoods. The orange one for BigHeadBoy is made of Lion Cotton-Ease, the old one in Orange-ade on size 8 needles. A little of the Rowan ASC for his contrast color.
