I got this yarn last summer, intending to knit a sweater for our then unborn baby. I got yellow since we didn't know the gender of the baby, and I figured that I could embellish the sweater after the baby was born.
Well, baby girl was born 3 weeks early, so I didn't get to knit the newborn sweater. Instead, I decided to make her a light-weight cardigan for Easter.
I used this pattern that I found on Ravelry, and just used a single button instead of the ties. (I had planned on using three small buttons had our baby been a boy)
It fits really nicely, and was a pretty quick project. I used a cotton blend baby yarn that I got at our local yarn store. No seams, except the top of the hood (which I love, I totally hate having to seam in sleeves, especially on such a tiny project) The hood has a cute little point at the back, but my model was not being cooperative, and the oldest person around to hold her was 3!
