I love this cardigan.  It is based off a Debbie Bliss pattern in her Essential Baby book.  I’ve made a lot of projects from the book, and all are well-loved and much-used.  The original pattern is a button down, but I wanted to use these big vintage rhinestones so I omitted the button holes.  Similar buttons can be found here.  I hid chunky snaps under the buttons for easy on and off.  The yarn is a simple Patons Classic Wool.

I love a good balance of utility and fancy.
