Notes

The handspun fluffed and softened a lot after blocking. Though in the pictures the collar looks wonky, it really isn’t.

UPDATE: doesn’t baby G look so cute in her sweater! And, yup, changed those buttons from plain-jane to cute flowers.

08/29/09 - Buttons on! I love it! It looks a lot better after blocking and the buttons really make it cute! I won’t post finished pics until this is gifted.

08/25/09 - Blocking now. Need to find buttons.

08/24/09 - Finished the first sleeve. The sleeve seemed kinda of short to me so I knitted to four inches before starting the garter stitch border.

08/14/09 - OK! Stop the press! That was getting WAY TOO complicated for me! I have now cast on a different project and have less than 48 hours to get it done! :-) Why do I do this to myself?:-P

07/26/09 - I’ve got about three inches of this knitted up so far. It’s a quick knit and directions have been easy enough thus far. It seems really big so far.
