Pattern: Sunflowers and Ladybugs (Twist Collective Spring 2009)
Yarn: Cascade 220 (red, white, black- 1 skein each)
Needles: US 2, dpns ; US 6 for wings
Modifications: I outlined them in Ravelry:
-
no separate shoes. Her shoes are simply a color change from her legs to her feet. Small shoes would have been a choking hazard.
-
face, hands, legs are all the same color. I only had an ‘off white’ wool, so that’s all she’s made from.
-
Her wings are shorter and knit at a larger gauge. I wanted them to have more ‘play’ and I lightly stuffed them with polyfill/wool batting.
