Off the Needles: Puerperium

Ok, ok- I learned my lesson.  Next time I will take your advice.  Next time I do 2-row stripes I will just carry the yarn up the side.  But, with ends woven in, I think It's safe to say I have a FO.




Details:
Yarn: Leftover Swish DK and Debbie Bliss Rialto
Raveled: here

ps- I think I have a thing for red buttons

    It's adorable! The light and dark blue work well together, and the buttons make it pop.

    It looks so pretty - I love your photographs with their shallow depth of focus too

    That is so amazing! How long did it take to knit up? I think my little man would look smashing in a green toned one with airplane buttons!

    Ooh, I love that colour combo! And the buttons! I've been contemplating this for a while, but I'm convinced now.

    What size did you make this one in - since the original link goes to the preemie version and this was obviously NOT what you knit - so just wondering what size you made for your daughter??

    Judy~
    I did make it in the original size, but my guage was off and I didn't fight it. Turns out it's way bigger than newborn- more like 6-9 month size.
