Baby Flax – 0-6mo – River Bluff Color Mist (knitting)
Got a skein of Color Mist for free from a Knitpicks promotion and decided to make another baby Flax sweater out of it.

Using leftover yarn from some other projects. I know I got a 0-6mo sweater in the Flax pattern out of a single ball of Mighty Stitch, so I expect to have plenty of yarn between 1.5 skeins of navy and a barely used skein of white.
