Making a short sleeved version of Sweet William for Josie’s birthday….missed her birthday, so Easter it is!
I love http://www.ravelry.com/projects/ceraphina/sweet-william Her choice of colours and the short sleeves so cute!
Had my eye on this lovely pattern for a long time. Clear easy to follow instructions…if you read them ….hehe… I missed a bit and placed my bunny pattern incorrectly so spent a few hours cursing myself and putting it right. All good now!
I really messed up the provisional cast on, I finished knitting the body then went to pick up stitches under the arm and found it really pulled tight across the bust line I tried to fix but ended up having to unpick the body and redoing. Second time around I did the provisional cast on again then picked up and knitted the arms right away before knitting too far down the body so I could make sure I had it looking okay.
Finished today love this pattern. Added a bunny of my own on the bottom.
2 special buttons off a waistcoat of my dads.

Received a couple of pics today of Josie in her sweater, I really thought it would be too big, happy to see its a good fit with a bit of wiggle room!
