GAUGE PROBLEM!
Ok, well not really. I did this on purpose. It's the MinnowKnits Dutch Girl pattern and it's awesome. But it only goes up to a 4 year size. Dudette is 5 and I wanted her to be able to wear it for a bit. So I threw caution to the wind and knit this bad boy up on size 11 needles when the pattern called for 10 1/2. As you can see, it's quite large. But Dudette loves it and as she pointed out, she'll get a good couple years out of it. God bless the thought process of my baby.
I used some Bulky Lamb's Pride I had in my stash for this one and completed it with a gorgeous button Sue gifted me. That she made all by herself. I couldn't make this sweater any more special now if I tried.

Fabulous!!! I love the button and wonder, how does one make a button? I love the shrug, can you share the pattern? And your model...she's precious!
Doing some blog walking this am, have forgotten how I got here...I do that often when I'm having fun exploring.
Stop in for a visit, welcome mats always out.
Have a great day

Such a beautiful button! And the sweater is adorable! It's only a little big...and she'll grow into it. Just means she wears it longer than planed, right?? ;)
That button is beautiful! Love the new sweater for your little one! She has the right idea! Great tank from the last post too! My niece would love one like that!
I just love it!! does it fit an adult? look like it might. Looks GREAT!!
