I did block it before sewing, but must say I can't really see any difference... here it is, before and after blocking:
I found the buttons when I went yarn shopping Tuesday, and just knew I had to have them! Aren't they adorable! Here's a close-up - taken at an angle as somehow that also made the colour come out better. It has looked almost grey in the other photos, but it really is more green'ish.
I've updated the pattern with gauge, size and amount of yarn used. Would you mind taking a look and seeing if it makes sense now?
Now to wait for niebling#6 to make his or her appearance :)
Very cute - the wee buttons finish it off perfectly :)
ReplyDeleteCute vest with the little frogs.
ReplyDeleteLove that lettuce green yarn - very cute! Are those little frog buttons? I couldn't quite make them out in the photo.
ReplyDeleteYup, they are :) If you click on the photo, it should take you to a (slightly) larger verion of it. I thought they were too cute for words :D
Delete`very cute indeed!
ReplyDeleteIt's adorable!
ReplyDeleteThank you. I'm really happy about how it turned out too :)
DeleteI love baby vests! They are so versatile and look so cute. The one you have made is too cute for words and the buttons are perfect!
ReplyDeleteThank you :) I'm pretty thrilled with it myself :)
Deletelovely! I love the buttons too =)
ReplyDeleteThat vest is so cute and the buttons are perfect for it. I can see why you think there is not difference to the blocked version but it looks more evenly shaped to me.
