Nether Garment

I finally started Elizabeth Zimmermann's Baby Sweater on Two Needles which I had been wanting to cast on for quite a while. I started it in some acrylic yarn from my stash but just wasn't happy with the feel. I switched to some other stash yarn- a much nicer one, Rowan Cashcotton. I also used this for Baby M's sweater and I loved the finished project, really soft and a bit fuzzy. More on that (with a photo) shortly.

The pattern is from A Knitter's Almanac which has a project or a few projects for each month of the year. The baby sweater is from a chapter for February (thus is well-known moniker- the "February Baby Sweater"). Another chapter is on nether garments. Ha! I love the name but I am definitely not interested in knitting long johns. Here's the nether garment I knitted instead.
