  2. Cannot wait to make this jacket for our Granddaughter for this Xmas. I love Marianna's creations. Our Granddaughter looks sweet and cuddly in them.
    Thank you Marianna for posting all of your beauties.

  4. Thank you so much for your designs. I've knitted a number of them for gifting. Nevis especially was a highly appreciated one which I've knitted several times.What about creating some bigger sizes? Babies grow up so quickly.

  5. I cannot see the garter bands in the pattern. They should be adjacent to the button holes?

    1. Silly me, it's knitted from the top down. We are used to knitting from the bottom up in Australia.

  6. I need help! I've finish the body of the cardigan and just started the long sleeves. I chose the 9-12 months size pattern.
    I put the 42 sts onto a circular needle (size 6 - 16") FYI: I hate circular needles!!!! The yarn is stretching so much around the circular needle. How has anyone else done the sleeves?

  7. Is there a pattern for 0-3 months? Thanks.
