WIP Wednesday: Garter Stitch For The Win!!

Its Wednesday so it's time for a crafting update.  Now, I have to admit that there hasn't been any progress on any of the projects I showed you last week but that's because I started a new one.  I wanted a project that was not only easy to pick up and put down, but also fairly simple for traveling at the weekend too.

I really liked a little grey garter stitch cardigan that son 3 had from Next and decided to make one in size 3-6 months using a pattern from this gorgeous book by Debbie Bliss:
The hooded duffel coat is all garter stitch and I had ordered some grey Bernat Softie from Deramores that i decided to use:


Traveling by myself and a brilliant audiobook produced good knitting progress and I had the back finished and front left cast on by the time I returned to Aviemore:

Not only is the pattern really well written and easy to follow but the yarn is lovely to work with too, making this a project I really look forward to picking up whenever I can.

Fingers crossed there'll be even more progress to show you next week :)
