A baby sweater and a crochet project

K's friend has a baby girl. I started to knit a cardigan for her. As the cardigan was very small, it took me only a few days to knit all the parts. It was my first time to knit baby stuff and I began to worry the cardigan might be too small, even for a baby. It was really small and I have no idea how small the baby is...

Since my previous knitting project ended up too short for me, I learned that "when I feel something is wrong with a knitting project, follow my instinct." So I decided to rip the cardigan and knit a size for a 1-year-old, rather than for a 6-9 month-old.

I also have a crochet project now to use several left over yarns. The first project is an easy triangle shawl. It looks nicer than I expected. I wish I had one more ball of the same yarn.
