Beautiful pattern! This pattern creates such a lovely little sweater. I like the flexibility in color options and customizability. My only misgiving is that if your child has a big head like mine, the collar can give you some trouble even if you crochet it loosely. Perhaps there’s a way to modify the pattern to add a button or two in at the top instead to help with that issue.

Lovely little crochet pattern. It worked up quickly and is a great way to use up odds and ends. I made size 6-12 months. It was quite big but a nice size to grow into. I went down a hook size too. I’m now making my second one for this one’s big sister! Very enjoyable crochet project.

Love this pattern and it's working up beautifully. The only issue I had was with the printed version. I'm old school and do not use my laptop to view pattern while working on it, so I always print patterns. The font is a tad small and light in color for my preference. I reached out to seller and we resolved my issue promptly. I will edit this review with a picture of my completed project.

I didn’t care for the selection of yarn that was suggested to use. It was a three weighted DK yarn, and it was very flimsy. I took it apart and decided that I will work on it at a later time with possibly some other type of yarn.

Really fun pattern, the contrast colors take up so little yarn - I was able to continue the pattern for the texture on the sleeves and do some cute color blocking.

The pattern was so easy to read and well written, and my baby’s sweater came along great! there’s so many options for sizes! I love how this sweater is so easy to customize for different holidays!! I used weight 3 yarn for the main color, and weight 4 for the accent colors since I didn’t want to go to the store for more weight 3, and my sweater came out just fine! I will definitely be making more sweaters from this pattern and also checking out more patterns from this shop! My only change would be to have the neck snap together with a button (worked in rows instead of rounds), because the while my initial chain fit over my baby’s head, it seemed like the neckline got a little smaller once adding in the collar. Making it where we could unsnap the collar to make it bigger to more-easily fit would be great! But still 5/5 stars!!

This is such a cute sweater! The only reason I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars is because the next time I make one I will likely crochet in the round instead of slip stitching rows together to avoid the line it creates. Regardless, I LOVE this pattern.
