And now for some Gorilla Knitting....
Okay. It's a bad pun, I know. But I've been meaning to blog about this sweater for a while. And then the gorilla was wearing it. And the last post was about Guerilla Knitting....yeah, it was lame.
But not the sweater. This Presto Chango [rav link]. The smallest size took one skein of Cascade Sierra.
The thing that I love about this sweater is that panel. The idea is, that babies are messy. But this sweater is part bib. (Does that make it a swib? OMG, what the heck is my problem today! I'm seriously being so dorky!) Anyway, the baby pukes all over the front and PRESTO CHANGO, you replace the panel!
And the panels can all be different. Just think of all the various combinations. Instead of making a sweater for every holiday, you make one sweater and three or four panels. Or it you aren't sure if the baby is a boy or a girl, make the sweater in a neutral color and gender-fy the panels.
I also think you could remove the panel entirely and it would make a cute shrug.
Well, there were a few Presto Chango's made in the Baby Sweater class and those knitters seemed to enjoy it.
And the gorilla seems to enjoy wearing it. He hasn't taken it off yet, has he?
