Sonja -

Coco is wearing a 12-month size, and she’s 17-months old, but she’s very small. Although the sweaters do have quite a bit of stretch to them. Occasionally, she has one up there that’s in a 2T. And she’s never had a 4T before, but I’ve been able to order two now for Pea in a 4T. She custom makes them, it was the same price, and then I got to tell her what colors I’d like. If you’re interested, you should email her. She’s really nice and easy to work with and she aims to please!

It says their sized for 12 months. Do they have other fits I’m not seeing? My little one is 18 mo. old…would they fit her? wondering….

Thanks! I love those sweaters and will probably order for my girls, too. I love that they are hand made. Etsy rocks.

Melissa, Thank you so much for including my little sweaters in your blog! I greatly appreciate it and I am so happy you and your girls are enjoying them! I feel so honored to have you as a patron – life would be good if everyone was half as sweet as you are. Thank you again!
all my best, jacquelyn
ps – I’m still pondering over adult sizes….

Erin,

I’ll put up a picture of Coco in her sweater so you can get an idea of the scale of the buttons. They are large buttons on the pieces that button in the front, but their size makes the overall look just work so well. The buttons on the “tunic” sweaters, that button on the side, are smaller and I don’t think would be a hindrance to a napping baby.

Beautiful! But one question, it’s hard to tell proportion from the pics and those buttons look HUGE! I’m just thinking of a little one napping on giant buttons…………….

If you *ever* want to learn to crochet, give a holler my way! I’ll help you, even if it IS long distance. If you can hold a pencil, you can probably crochet. I know what you mean about wanting something unique for your kids. I’m like that, too. I’m going to make some sweet cuffs for my daughter! I hope no one else has them at her college!

Just checked out the Etsy site … there is not enough room on my credit card for everything I want. The quilts are so beautiful, and the sweaters you chose for your girls are wonderful.
