Notes

05/24/2017. Finished. Chose some funky turquoise polka dot and striped buttons I had stashed. Happy with the outcome! Love the soft colors of this Felici yarn!

05/23/2017. Completed hood, modeled after Bacoknitter’s. Used nearly 2 balls Felici used after hood was completed.

Seamed shoulder using Wiki seaming tips: Seam tips .

I-cord edging around outer edges and hood using Sugarspun DK yarn.

Extended sleeves with K1, P1 ribbing. Picked up 36 sts, and magic looped for 24 rnds.

5/14/2017. A new baby girl is coming in June! A perfect excuse to knit this pattern!
