I absolutely adore it, except that it is WAAAYYY too big.
You can't really see it in the photos, but the armholes hang way too low and it's definitely a lot more roomier than needed.
However, have no fear! This is a bit premature, but it’s going straight into my “pregnancy pile” (stuff I’ve shrunk out of since I’ve lost some weight). It’s actually going to be FAB with a baby bump someday.

I swear almost everyone we know who is married is having kids right now. Luckily, all I needed was a weekend at the cabin, snowed in, to get this finished.

Both sweaters are gorgeous! That Rambling Rose is going to make a fantastic maternity sweater. I just queued up the baby sweater for my own little-one-on-the-way. I think I even have some Patons in my stash!
Very cute. And it can be an oversize comfy sweater too!
I've had rambling rose in my queue forever- it's such a gorgeous cardi! Yours is very pretty, and top marks to you for figuring out that an oversized cardi can be really awesome, especially with a baby bump. Speaking of which- great baby sweater, too!
