Yarn: Bendigo Woollen Mills Classic 2 x 200gm balls, color - Sweetpea
Size: 12 years
Needle size: 4mm
This pattern was so lovely when I saw it on Tikki's blog that I immediately put my hand up for test knitting it so that Isabelle would have a lovely cardigan to wear. I had originally knit the sleeves a bit shorter than called for in the pattern but then decided once Isabelle had worn it to do the correct length. I love how this turned out and the wool softened up nicely after it was soaked for a bit. I am still not a huge fan of the crepey look of the wool though and I think I would use another yarn next time.
Isabelle couldnt see properly in the last photo as the sun is out today and shining brightly so she was squinting a bit. I will have another FO during the week as I had to get Isabelle to model both or otherwise she wouldnt have done it later on, so the next one has an end or two hanging out but I will weave them in today. I hope your all enjoying your weekend!

She looks gorgeous in it!
It looks lovely on Isabelle!
I agree, it looks great.
I think that's lovely and goodness, she's growing up so fast. I like the shape of the neckline.
Isn't it funny how kids do that in photos - I can think of several photos of myself or my sister like that!
It looks so cute on Isabelle -- what a lucky little girl to have a knitting mum!
