After 2 days of button shopping---- here it is;)

Fits great. (a bit big)
Will make it again.

this is lovely and what a great photo composition!! I haven't made it to the button part--I imagine 2 days may not be enough for me.

thnx;) Have to say- even after 2 days---- the buttons are just "ok" I don't know what I had in mind--- but I couldn't find anything I absolutely loved.

Tracey--
How would you rate the yarn you used on softness? Could you compare it to another common wool for me? I'm trying to decide on a wool yarn with excellent stitch definition, but one that won't scratch my limbs off or break the bank. Ella Rae Classic seems like it could fit the bill, so to speak.

Great stitch definition....
softness probably a 6 out of 10 if malabrigo is a 10 for wool. (It's my "10" for wool softieness;)

Comparable to Galway- in my opinion. I think cascade 220 might be softer, and comparable in price.
