Den som väntar på nåt gott väntar alltid för länge!

Long time, nothing finished. Knitting with two small toddlers in the house is often not even possible, extremely slow when possible, and full of making mistakes and fixing them. This overall would have been finished ages ago otherwise.
But here it is, at last, and just in time for some cold weather. Pattern from Finnish Moda magazine 4/2012. I used 2,5 and 3,5 mm needles, and since my LYS did not have the Sandnes Smart yarn (they used to, but now they had it only in their downtown store and I did not feel like waiting for it or going downtown to get it myself), I used Dale of Norway/Dale Falk yarn. I needed half a skein more than I originally bought (11½ skeins), but fortunately they had the same dye lot left when I went back there last Wednesday!
I made size 2 years old in width and 4 years lengthwise, and am happy with this as it fits perfectly. Only one problem: little'un likes it so much she won't take it off. And we're indoors; she'll get overheated soon...
