    About

    not too plain, not too girly, just right :) Easy pattern to follow and fun to make. I chose to knit the sleeves in the round to avoid a seam, and made the pocket linings stocking stitch instead of double moss stitch - it's quite a bulky yarn and I am pants at making up so I aimed to streamline. The flowers are Swiss darned and I'm still thinking about them. Not too late to take them off... not sure.

      Ohh aren't children funny,but you know what their wee ears will be listening when people are saying nice things about their tunic so they will be very proud their grandmother made it for them.Even though Peppa the pig is their favourite thing at the moment.lol. Maybe you could make them a Peppa pig.😊😊

      Hi. I love this little tunic you've done and the flowers just finish it off nicely. I'd definitely keep them if I were you. Well done.

      I think it's perfect and the flowers just add a lovely touch.your wee granddaughter will love her wee tunic especially since her grandmother made it just for her.

        Not sure how much the girls like their granny's efforts! Peppa Pig sweatshirts are more the thing, alas - but my daughter in law tells me she gets lots of complimentary enquiries, so I'm not downhearted yet :)

      I think this looks lovely and the flowers are a great addition and make the finished item all that much more unique and personalised! (Although I may not be the best person to ask if you’ve seen my “creations” for my niece I get well and truly carried away adding things from mini toys to brooches)
