Pink & white ballet set

Pretty frilly skirt with satin ribbon detail. With simple cross over cardigan, this piece was designed to have frilly pants knitted into the design but I choose not to do them. It also had little slippers and a head band, which are not in the photo. A friend fell in love with this piece so it went to a special little princess. 

White rose pink bolero.

Lovely pink soft wool detailed edging bolero, would fit 6/9 month old perfect over a pretty party dress.

LITTLE PREMI SET
Pre term baby (or doll)
Using robin baby wool in pink & white. Cute little romper bolero & hat. Finished off with little ribbon bows, there is small beads on this so extra care during wearing is advised, perfect for a special photo outfit. 

PURPLE DETAILED HEM CARDIGAN 
Using purple medium/heavy weigh wool (unsure of brand). This was very easy & quick to do, as it used large needles the results came quickly, only took a few days to do so will deffo be doing more sizes & colours. 


HAND KNITTED FUR TRIM WAISTCOAT
Using supersoft cream aran & funky fur wool. The cream funky fur I found to be more white/light cream but this was the closest shade match to the aran. 
I think it looks close enough, pattern was fairly simple to follow once got into it, I did make a few mistakes meaning had to take back a hole days work, but I managed to quickly get back to stage where I noticed my mistake. This piece fits 5/6 tight but 4/5 over a nice winter sweater.
