Hand knitted baby cardigans

So adorable, Lynn! Brings happy tears to my eyes remembering the blue and white sweater that Mister's Aunt knitted for him when he was a baby, and that his mother gave to him as a memento. Then when we had our son, the same Aunt knitted him an identical sweater, which I also saved. Lo, and behold our son had the twinks and, you guessed it, they wore their grandfather's and their father's sweaters. I think I did a post about it once. It's really cool how it all happened, so little do you know when you knit one of these, it might become a family heirloom!!
