Isn't it cute!? Its called Robinson and is from Patons Nursery Story pattern book.
Here's my plan, and I believe it to be a rather cunning plan at that.
I had a look at the pattern and noted that the age 2-3 required 5 balls of the main colour (brown in the photo) and 1 of the contrasting colour (cream), and I handily enough had 5 balls of one colour...
These balls to be more precise:
The colourway is called Misty and randomlythe photo is quite a good match for what the colour is like in person. My plan is to knit the above cardigan and therefore have purchased 2 balls in order to knit up 5 (yes, there are 5 there) which I think is quite a good method of using the stash and getting a lovely cardigan at the end of the day.
So these are the 2 balls I bought, as the contrasting colour, nice and green.
I was thinking of doing the ribbing in the green to brighten it up a tad, and also in case there's not enough of the blue, but I have a while to think about it.So... do you think my yarn purchase was justified?

I think you have been very reserved and it is certainly justified. I also think it's a lovely hoodies, can't wait to see it all finished up :)
you'll have a while to wait Nicky, next year at the earliest, lol.
