I have just sewn the buttons on
the coat that I have been making for about 3 weeks. It is a Stella Smith design that I cut out of
Simply Knitting magazine a few years ago.
I have just looked more closely at the pattern and have noticed the date
of July 2006!
The original design is knitted in
pink with light coloured buttons. I was
asked to knit something in mauve and I tried light buttons but decided that the
darker buttons looked better. They are
mauve too, but look black from a distance.
I am crossing my fingers that the coat fits the baby. I have never seen her in the flesh, but hope I will soon
be seeing a photo of her wearing a little mauve coat!
Just a few more days of Christmas
preparations and overwork, and then I can get back to serious knitting.
