I made the size 3-4 year hoping she will be able to wear it for a couple of years.  

Knitting sleeves two at a time in order to keep them even was very helpful.  A little bit of yarn management but well worth it!  

The yarn was in my stash from a knit crate I received years ago.  I had two skeins.  584 yards in total.  Not enough for an adult sweater but perfect for a childs sweater.  Or so I thought!  I ended up playing a bit of yarn chicken however, was able to finish with a few yards to spare!  

I ended up narrowing it down to a few and asking advice on Instagram.  Mismatched flowers won the vote!    And added so much LIFE to this sweater!  

The sweater is blocked.  The name tag and buttons are sewn in place.    I can't wait to wrap and gift this!
