Anyway, I managed to finish Handyman's Christmas present, the Sleeveless Hoodie. I am quite pleased with the finished results, and I'm debating knitting up a matching one for Peter. Wouldn't he and daddy be a handsome pair?
(Sorry about the blurry photo. This is the best one of about 20. Four year old boys do NOT like to hold still - or smile in anything less than a completely dorky grin.)
Here's the back with the hood. I tried steam blocking it with an iron, which flattened the edges down but slightly singed the yarn. Thankfully it's not too noticieable.
Specs:Pattern: Sleeveless Hoodie from the Knitting Man(ual)
Yarn: Lion Brand Vanna's Choice, 3 skeins of Navy and 2 of Terra Cotta Orange
