I designed a cropped jacket to match the jumper and hat.  I don't care for it.  Not what I drew on paper.  I thought of cute little puff sleeves. Didn't work out.  I used measurements for a 4 yr old, did a gauge swatch and  got my number of stitches.  There was so much trouble getting this done.  I had to rescue it twice from Koda (st. bernard puppy). First time when he knocked over my ice water and I had water and ice cubes on my notes, table and floor.  Thank God I had my crochet was in a bag.  Second time he brushed up against me knocked over my crochet and had to catch it while he ran into the other room. I had to throw away one skein of used yarn that he grabbed in his mouth and slimed it.  Yuk! 

I didn't like the way the trim looked with the contrasting color so I went around the jacket in single crochet in same color then added the contrasting color. Seemed to look better.  When I don't like something or the way it looks I have a hard time finishing it.  This jacket sat for a week until I put the buttons on it.  Anyway I finished it.  Here is some pictures of it.

I would love the pattern for this toddler dress and jacket. I have little great granddaughters that I've been making things for.  I love this dress! It's perfect.
