Technically I finished this like a month ago, but I couldn't post pics until it was given to the intended recipient. Plus I hadn't sew on the buttons until this morning. Please excuse the horrible pictures. Not great lighting and my camera sucks.
Pattern: Jasmine Lace Edge Cardiganfrom Natural Knits for Babies and Moms
Yarn: Ella Rae Baby Cotton (88% Cotton, 12% Nylon) in "Peony" - 1 and a half(ish) balls
Needles: Body - US 6/4mm
Sleeves and edging - US 5/3.75mm
Variations: I knit the whole thing from one side to the other, rather than back/left front/right front and seaming together. I hate seaming. I picked up for the sleeves and worked the instructions backwards for those, in the round. I also made the sleeves about an inch shorter than the pattern called for since the intended baby is due in May and it gets hot here pretty fast.
Very, very cute and really easy to put together. Took me about a day total to knit the whole thing up.
