almost perfect

Almost perfect.... Yes, this "beautiful purple sweater" is almost perfect. Why almost? Because my little fashionista decided to tell me that she wants a sweater that comes down to mid-thigh. This one will be perfect when it "grows bigger bigger bigger". Sadly, someone needs to tell her that sweaters do not grow and that this one WAS sized a bit bigger to ensure that it would make it through the spring and into the fall.

Thankfully, sweater yarn for number two has been ordered. And it will be a mid-thigh length sweater. If I can push it out soon enough, it will be part of her birthday present/outfit. A wonderful friend of mine gifted me a half yard of some awesome Dino Dude knit from the Michael Moore collection. I matched the yellow of that pretty closely with a beautiful gold color for her sweater and then will be ordering some dino themed buttons for the front. Pairing that with a little tiered skirt in the matching colors (thinking lime, orange and turquoise) and she will have her "birthday" outfit. This sweater was supposed to be her "birthday" sweater and it still will be... Just for her three year pictures instead of party wear. But its cute and festive and girly and I know that it will get tons of use. Especially after it "grows" a bit.
