Basket Weave Jumper

A few weeks ago I went to spotlight to get some wool. I didnt end up buying wool, but I did buy a couple of kits (that had the wool included) to try.

The first one, turned out really well. I haven't been really into knitting lately, but this took no time at all. Its a very simple pattern with no shaping. I did make the button holes a little smaller so I could use my cute little baby blue ducks that I got from Ebay.

It was my first attempt at using a matress stitch to sew it together. I wish I had've been told about that stitch years ago!!
