Malvina, meet everybody. Everybody, meet Malvina.
She was very fun to knit, impossible to put down, I'll just knit one more thing kind of addictive. Malvina will have lots of brothers and sisters, I can tell.
Since I was knitting with DK yarn and 3.25 mm dpns, I had to make some adjustments. I also didn't want to sew the two halves of the sweater, so I knit it in one piece. It came out a little bit too tight in body because I reduced the length too much. I'm thinking of knitting a top-down raglan next. I have lots of acrylics in outrageous colors to make lots of clothes for her.
