My difficulty rating is based on the sewing, which i found tough. Despite guage being correct, i think the sizing runs small. Making the size 3 for my 3 days away from being 2 year old and don’t think it’ll last long.

Knitting was fun but the zip was horrendous. I don’t have much zip experience and it took 3 attempts to firstly buy the right kind, then sew it in neatly. Instructions on zip choice and sewing code be clearer for novice sewers.Emailed ysolda to point out that the pattern doesn’t tell you what to do with the stitches on hold for the underarm. Finally joining sleeves to body after 2 weeks - finding the 4 ply slow going.
