Still a WIP but thought I'd post what I've done so far:

It's very tiny, not sure if too tiny :giggle:

Grrrrr the pattern I used didnt' give any finished measurements (or gauge to be fair) so I have just winged it. After making the comment I made earlier about size I've just looked up and I think it is too small :( it is only about 13 inches around where I have just read NB size should be 14 inches body size plus an inch or so for ease. It does stretch a bit but not heaps. I need a NB to measure :lookround: :giggle:

Looks lovely.

You could add an extra few rows on the button band/trim to make it a little bigger around the chest. ;)
