"Those cabled baby hoodies are just adorable! I looked through the pattern and it seems easy enough to do if it's followed carefully. I have some reddish brown yarn that ould be perfect for a little boy I know, so I am going to try this and hopefully have it ready for this fall."

"The older one gets, the easier one feels chilly - not only at the feet, but also around the "middle section“. The solution to this is a garment that is called Haramaki (腹巻, literally "belly wrap" or "bellyband") in Japanese. This one is not only a tube, but a piece of clothing that can be wrapped and adjusted around belly and hips with a strap on either side. The piece is knitted all in garter stitch and therefore quite easy to knit. It is suitable for beginners as well."

What an unusual garment. It's always interesting to see what people knit in other cultures and what they use it for. I never get cold around my middle but if I did I'd definitely give this a try.
