Working hard!

I have been working very hard on different projects, but was unable to post any pictures until I purchased some batteries for my camera! Finally bought them yesterday and so here is what I have been up to.
Firstly, I made a crocheted baby coverlet in 3D roses and decorated it with tatted motifs and borders. I have line the coverlet with fleece to make it really cosy. Although it looks ornate, it washes well, and so is really practical.
Secondly, I made a cabled cardy for my latest great-nephew (8 months old)
Thirdly, I liked this little cardy so much I made another one, but made my own pattern up.
Finally, I enjoyed my spell of knitting so much that I decided to make myself an aran cardigan. I have done the back and two fronts, and have now started on the first sleeve. I will post a pic when it is finished.

I love those cardigans--great job. I would love to make one of those for my 16 month old grandson but it looks so complicated. Are they done top down?
Love,

Marie
