Wherever I wander, wherever I roam
I couldn't be fonder of my big home
The bees are buzzing in the tree
To make some honey just for me.......
Bare Necessities from the Junglebook
Pattern: Whitfield Shorty
Yarn: Woolen Rabbit Frolic
Colorway: Junglebook
Needles: US 5and 6
Whenever my grandson Aidan comes over he loves to come out to my studio to see all of the yarns. He has been fascinated with all of the fiber for many years......going right back to the love for his blanket.
Aidan for years has been asking me to make him a sweater, so when I saw Anne's little sweater that she made for her nephew, I begged her to write the pattern because I knew it would be perfect for Aidan.
A year later, Mr. Aidan has his sweater and he loves it! He told me that it smells like Grammy's house and how happy he is to be able to wear his "blanket" to school. Of course I did ask him if smelling like Grammy's house was a good thing...LOL....thankfully he said a resounding yes. :-)
Enjoy your sweater little guy!
Everything about that is awesome.

It is such a great pattern, and it looks great on Aidan. It is not too "fussy" but has a nice rather rugged tailored look. I love it too.
