Kissable

During my recent pregnancy, I loved designing a few baby items that our little one could wear. While designing and knitting baby things I would imagine what it would be like once our baby would be here. One of my designs was this little cardigan. Even though we did not know whether we would be having a boy or a girl, the design is rather girly with the fair isle hearts border on the body, and therefore perfect for the amazing daughter we ended up having. Now that Eleanor has arrived and gets to wear this cardi, I thought I'd share the pattern with you all.
