Finished Item - Premmie Baby Cardigan
Lee-Anne wanted me to make her something in a lime green for Ellie-Rose so I whipped this up on Thursday night & did the finishing touches yesterday afternoon. The pattern was one I sort of altered by combining two patterns by Heather from Just Crochet. I was actually trying to do one of her patterns (JC75P) and I had problems with it so I used the shell pattern from another pattern (JC01A) of hers to finish it off. I think it looks pretty good. It's meant to fit a 9" chest but I used a slightly bigger hook than the original pattern stated. I am so hoping it will fit. It looks so tiny but it should fit a bubz up to 3lb. I'd better post it off soon so that Ellie-Rose can wear it before she gets too big.
Look what my postie delivered yesterday. How nice do these buttons look? I got them for a bargain off ebay.
Here's a close up ...
I am sure that I will be able to put these buttons to good use.
Very cute cardigan!...and I love the colorful buttons too!
ReplyDeleteThank you Poetess. I was nearly going to put light green buttons on the cardigan but decided that the darker ones would look better.
ReplyDeleteI really do like how it turned out.
Not sure what is cuter the sweater or the amazing buttons!
ReplyDeleteThanks WildflowerWool. I'm not sure I could choose between the two either.
