Hibernating

8 years ago last month, my sweet niece Amelia was born. I knit a little sweater, I think planning for her first birthday. I finished the knitting and about half of the finishing. I can't for the life of me remember why I didn't finish the whole thing. And, I haven't had the right little girl to gift it to.. until now. My son's 4th grade teacher is expecting her first baby over the summer, and we threw her a surprise shower today. I pulled this out of storage, finished the seaming, added the ribbon, and voila! Hand knit baby gift (full disclosure, some of the seaming is done with a slightly different blue yarn but if you won't tell I won't either)
