Ballet Cardi for J
Originally uploaded by inspirations2004.

I made two of these. One for each daughter of my cousins who are both 1 1/2 years of age.
This was the 1st one is displayed here.

Pattern from: Family Circle easy Knitting - Winter 04/05;
Needles: Crystal Palace bamboo No. 7

Yarn: 75% Acrylic 25% Wool. (unknown English Mfg)

Comments:
Didn't follow pattern for sleeves, came out too big. I picked up sts with circs and knitting the sleeves from top to bottom.

Here are some censored images of my 2nd cousin with her cardi:

The pattern is for a 4 year old and I was right on gauge. My 2nd one I dropped a needle size. At least she'll have good wear out of it.

Since the Ties are a borring to knit...for my 2nd one I used a ribbon.

and also I dropped a needle size and used Crystal Palace bamboo No. 6, this made it less than recomended gauge but better suited for a 2 year old.
