Call in the Ravelry

If you've found your way here, chances are you already know about the amazing online wooly collective that is Ravelry. Essentially Pinterest for knitters and crocheters. I of course am a big fan and have FINALLY, finished my latest project, the 'Little Sister's Dress'.

 
My Version, 'Little Sister's Dress'


I say finally, as I started this before I was pregnant with my daughter (who is now 7 months old) and it was originally intended for my niece who is now 2 years old, and way too big for this little dress! So lucky I had a little girl!

This was my first time using circular needles for their intended purpose and it all came out rather splendidly. I am most proud of the finished product. It's knitted all in one piece, and despite the length of time it took me to complete, it is actually quite simple.
