my little cropped top



Finally, I finished this challenging piece.

Really you would wonder what challenges are there, it is just a very simple cropped top. My challenge is getting the guage right. I got the perfect yarn that calls for 5/0 yet it turned out to be even smaller than the 3/0 sized in the original pattern! How can a hippo sized me squeeze into that tiny top?

I'm so happy with this piece of (hard)work that I wore it fresh from the oven, I only stitched up the buttons this morning. So, tell me, is it cute??

Oh its beautiful. Good work. What yarn did you use. This pattern looks so familiar like I have seen it before somewhere :)

Thanks Doreen, I have linked up the yarn and pattern, I'm not surprised you find this familiar, it was featured in a 07 book.
