Notes

Was going to knit a 3-4 because that’s what size my girl wears(4T, precisely), but I saw so many project pages with the the FO falling off the shoulders of the wearer and I REALLY want this to be perfect for my girl so I measured her. Good thing because the 3-4 is WAY too big for her as far as measurements go. She fits between the 12-18M and 2-3. Going with the 2-3 for a smidge of growing room but hopefully the perfect fit. :-)

Finishing note:
I wasn’t sure what button I could put on this silly, sparkly yarn, but when I finished the garment I was looking through my button bag and came across this lonely 3/4” Tessa Ann Designs button that was just PERFECT. Slightly iridescent, and the colors are exactly the colors of the sparkle thread running through the yarn. Best of all: My little one LOVES it! She put the FO on as soon as she woke up and has not taken it off. I am overjoyed!!! :-D
