Little Ruff for MJ



Yay! Even though I woke up feeling like my sinuses would implode, I got some good news... Sassy sister sewed the button on the little ruffle "scarf" I made for MJ in September. Sass liked the one I had made for myself so much she dug through her stash and found a beautiful ball of merino wool for me to make one for the baby. We both thought it would not only be too cute for words, but pretty functional as well. Babies don't really have long necks, and I honestly don't know how other people address the scarf issue with their kids, but it seemed like a little Elizabethan collar would do the trick. It looks a little clown-ish on me, but MJ is so freakin' cute we could wrap a dirty old tube sock around her neck and people would still compliment her in it. As of today, the very active toddler was not in the mood for posing in her fantastic winter-wear, but I was promised a photo when it happens.
(Sassy has done a better job at linking details of this pattern through her site; I am still new to blogging and the internet in general, so please see her page for details.)
