Well, you know how I'm gonna be about anything involving fuchsia. That sweater is so pretty, and just perfect as is.

That's adorable. I wouldn't mind one of those for myself. Might have to blow the pattern up (waayyyyyy up)!

If that sweater is still hanging outside when I go by, I'm stealing it! It's beautiful and would be great on any of my 3 small neices!

What a lovely sweater! I'm glad you left the intarsia flowers out. The fuschia color is perfect and shows off the smocking so well. Your friend will be thrilled.

I love the smocking on this! The way it continues onto the cuffs of the sleeves. You did some great knitting. Congrats.

What a pretty sweater. I used that same yarn color for a baby sweater and the Mom says it goes with every thing and washes well. The smocking is gorgeous.

Oh, I LOVE it!
Great color, and the pattern! I'm going to have to dig that ole' pattern book out@!!!

Perfect grand-daughter sweater, for the one who will only wear pink.

Really gorgeous sweater, Ruth. And you certainly went through fewer iterations than I did for my baby sweater follies. Good job.

Oh, that is JUST.SO.ADORABLE! Such a great color choice, and it looks so soft and comfy!

That is really beautiful! I made that cardigan when my daughter was a baby but in insipid pale lemon - nothing like as lovely as that colour! I have a friend having a babe early next year and this is going to be on my needles! How much yarn did you use / which size?
