      Very classy style and nicely executed. I love your yarn fiber and color choices. As others have commented, I wouldn't at all mind having a similar sweater for myself! In fact, I just purchased a similar yarn, (Lang Silk Merino) and I think I might be able to figure out the pattern sizing differential for it...we'll see!

      A simply beautiful little sweater! Quick and easy to knit, so I can make one for a little baby girl due the first of April! Love it!

      This is just lovely! I love the clean lines. Great choice of color and buttons too! I think I need to make one for my son, although I may have to figure out how to do buttons on both sides to make it easy to get on and off over a helmet. (He needs skull surgery and will be wearing an orthotic helmet for several months).

      I think that this pattern is so practical whilst being a very good one for a beginner! The buttons at the neck allow for easy slipping on and no buttons to dig in if baby is on her/his tummy. One can also adjust the length easily. Congratulations on a lovely pattern.

      We celebrated New Year's Day with the arrival of our first grandson. He will look adorable in this sweater- as he always does!

      I love to see young children in simple classic tops worked in garter stitch, especially in a lovely neutral colour. This is lovely and so classic. Beautifully done- I love it! This pattern might have to be next on my list :)

      Pure simple elegance! And the side top opening gives the ease to deal with squiggly little people, great for the harried mom.

      This sweater is adorable! A little different to many other children's sweaters and I think it has something of a nautical feel to it. I can imagine it being paired with some white trousers or shorts for a trip to the seaside!
      Love it!

      I love this. My son had a few jumpers like this as a baby, he was so irresistible in them. They're so comfortable for little ones, especially with silky yarn. And the colour of the buttons works perfectly. Well done :D
