Mini Jeans Jacket for Alma

Print Page

Description

I've made my third mini jacket for my friend's newborn daughter Alma. This time it came out way better, and I was faster. I don't have a picture of the second one because the baby was suddenly born some days before it was due, so I had to make it during the night and I gave it the morning after. I really love the cross shaped mother of pearl buttons.

busy moving to a new apt

not really, I modified a knitting pattern, I mean I used the same shape and measure, I removed the side seams because they are straight, and I adjusted the arm holes, made them bigger. It is basically a long rectangle with two U-sahpe cuts for the arm holes, and there's a pleat on the back.

How adorable! You're right, the buttons are a great detail. I bet she will look cute in that sweet jacket!

So cute, and the buttons are a nice finishing touch.
