it’s missing its buttons, but Nathan was being cooperative, so I took some photos anyhow.

specs-
pattern: Seamless Hybrid from E. Zimmermann’s Knitting Without Tears
size: i measured nate’s chest, arms, and torso length, then added a few inches for growth. I had 110 sts for the body and 36 sts for each arm.
gauge: 5 sts/in
yarn: Cascade 220 in silver grey over-dyed with many many packs of tamarindo kool-aid (2 skeins with just a smidge leftover) for the body/sleeves and azure for the button bands and hems (less than one skein). I probably have enough to make a fair isle-ish hat. oh the possibilities!
needles: US 8 (5mm)
cool things i learned: steeks! StSt hems! one-row buttonholes! raglan-saddle hybrid sweater decreases that RULE.

i used steeks to turn it into a cardigan and added hems to the body and sleeves. the sleeves are obviously a tad long, but the hem makes a perfect turn upward.

i dig it.
