>This is the first blog post about some of the project samples we have completed for Desperate Gifters (our holiday promotion).

The Swing Set Cardigan from Little Crochet was one of the easiest and quickest projects I’ve made in recent times. It actually took me only one day to make from the first chain to the last stitch! 

I made the 18-30 month size and used the fabulous hand-dyed yarn Tosh DK from Madelinetosh. The yarn is 100% superwash merino and is scrumptious! I needed 2 skeins to complete the project. Other yarns that I think would have been lovely for this pattern are Berroco Comfort DK, Cleckheaton Country 8-Ply, or Sirdar Baby Bamboo. 

I wish I had a lucky little niece to make this for – but alas, they are all too old now.
