Fo Friday #10

James' Jumper

This was such an easy knit! I really enjoyed doing it, other than the slight problem I had with increasing, which turned out to be easily solved, it was a very stress free project! I think I will make more of these little jumpers in different colours and sizes, I might even experiment with stripes. The whole jumper really only took about a week to knit up so making more won't be a problem. I was hoping to have a photo of James in his jumper but I haven't got one yet, I will update this post as soon as I get one, so watch this space!

As promised

I also wanted to mention that when I say jumper I mean sweater. I was asked last week if I meant sweater as I think in America a jumper is a dress and a sweater is just a sweater. So I hope this clears it up!

Well I'm off to check out Tami's blog and see other Fo's!

    It's funny, I say jumper (being English), but when I comment on American blogs I always say sweater ;)

  2. I haven't heard anyone call anything a jumper in quite some time, but I knew it was a sweater because I read Harry Potter fanfiction. =D Yeah, I'm a huge dork.

  8. Oh, where is the too adorable button?!!!!

    And when I hear someone use the word jumper I don't think dress, I think UK. A jumper is definitely a dress in the US, but even we don't use that word very much. :)

  13. Awwww how cute :-)

    To me, a jumper is a one-piece outfit, either pants, shorts, or dress.

  16. Very nice. I was wondering why you were making a dress for a little boy names James:) Sweater=jumper makes sense now though! Stopping by from TT&J.

  17. I LOVE it! I really wished I had started with baby sweaters instead of one to fit me...I might actually have a completed sweater by now ;-) Great job.

  18. aww the sweater looks awesome and he is so adorable! I would have been woefully confused when you said jumper (and thought of the rather horrific denim dresses my mom made me wear when I was 6) except Harry Potter taught me the distinction many, many years ago =)

  22. Cute sweater on a cute little baby! When I think of jumper I think of something with pants. But I could be wrong!

  23. That's a cute jumper and cuter baby.

    I can make the translation, it's pants and vests that get me.

    I did love my jumpers/dresses without sleeves worn over a blouse as a girl.
