It's a Fiber Arts pattern Zarina #15 otherwise called Seed Stitch Cardigan. I can't find any web link for it. I got the pattern for free when I purchased the yarn at Fiber Arts, a lovely yarn store in Cape May, NJ over my April vacation. The yarn is Ella Rae Lace Merino, and the sweater took exactly one skein. I have 42 inches of yarn left! I haven't sewed the buttons on yet, because I put them in a safe place until I needed them. I saw them in that safe place last week. Do you think I can remember where that safe place is now that I'm ready or them??? I Of course not! I also need to gently block it. The body of the sweater is all stockinette, which makes it a quick knit even if it's on size 3 needles. The bands and the cuffs of the sweater are all in seed stitch.

I loved working with the yarn. I love the little pocket too!

It's the Easy Lace Baby Blanket from the latest issue of Creative Knitting. and I'm using Plymouth Encore from Webs in honeydew. It's only a 4 row pattern, and 2 of those rows are purl backs! So this should be my travel knitting for a while.
I am awaiting a box of yarn from Webs. My knitting buddy and I each ordered a bunch of close out sock yarn over the weekend. Not that either of us needs more sock yarn. But as I explained to a nonknitting friend of mine, some folks lust over shoes. We lust over yarn!!
