Notes

A pretty easy project.

I used an entire skein of white and probably about half of the brown. (I should weigh the skein to check that -- it’s at least half)

I had just enough white left over to sew up the shoulders.

I wasn’t sure if it would fit a baby properly so I actually took a picture of it when my own baby was wearing it. SO, modified size is 3-6 months.

Buttons are yet to be put on -- I’ll probably buy them tomorrow after I go to the gym. All good, though. Super easy and relatively fast when I wasn’t distracted.

The buttonholes were too small for most buttons so I improvised. I bought some beads and chained a strand to thread through them and attached through the alternate buttonholes.

Looks nice on the spawn so should be good for a newer and smaller baby.
