The Clementine Hoodie is my latest knitting project, which will be given as a gift by my mother-in-law. It is made with Quince & Co's 100% wool Lark in the Pomegranate color.
The hood is worked in a feather and fan lace pattern, which is a great beginner's lace pattern. There is only one "lace" row in the four row pattern. The hardest part of the sweater was picking up the right number of stitches for the button band. First time I picked up too little and the hood was pinched; the second time I think I picked up a smidge too many, but I went with it. With each project I learn something new and with this one it was how to make a larger buttonhole with a double yarn over. Nothing tricky; just something I had not done before.
Hopefully it will keep the sweet little babe pretty in pink and warm and cozy.
