The swatching hiatus lasted almost 2 full weeks - that's crazy!  What little knitting time I did have was devoted to teaching my 6 year old nephew to do finger knitting, and then knitting with one of those french spool knitting things.  Anyway, back to the swatches:

Yarn: Tivoli Celtic Aran, 100% Superwash Aran Wool, in Blue and Taupe

Needles: 5 mm / US 7

Gauge: 4.25 sts and 6 rows per inch

Stitch Pattern: Stripes

Source: n/a

Comments: I had two balls of the blue in my stash from ages ago, and then I saw the taupe in the sale bin at work, so I had to get it.  I'm thinking v-necked, varsity/grandpa style cardigan, with this stripe pattern at the bottom and cuffs.  Size 12-18 months, perhaps? (or whatever 600 yards will get me!) :)
