Notes

This came out beautiful. I did a reverse sc around the collar, a picot bind-off on the sleeves, and around the bottom. The picot bind-off on the sleeves gives the fabric a little flare. One thing to note is that this pattern is written for sizes 2-6. To make it for a baby I used a finer yarn, and after several swatches settled on a size 8, and 7 for the collar. The Chiara makes a beautiful garment, but it is a nightmare if you need to rip it out.
