Notes

I’m delighted to begin this pattern! It’s adorable!

Wow, I had to do two major surgery sessions so far due to silly mistakes on my part, not the pattern’s fault! I am finally dividing the sleeves from the body! This yarn is great!

Almost done! Stopped at Joann Fabrics to pick out the buttons. Picked out 3 sets of possibilities….! My husband and friends at work helped me choose the cute flower shaped buttons.

The only modification I made was to increase the body length by 1/2” before beginning the ribbing. This meant I picked up 39 stitches along the front button placket.

A fun and relatively quick knit with cute results! I can’t wait to see this on Elizabeth! :-)
