Brenna is wearing the meridian jacket in a size five with a four-snap closure. i hand sewed snaps on the inside, and they covered with decorative fabric-covered buttons. i also opted to cuff the sleeves to show off the lining fabric. the exterior fabric is corduroy from Robert Kaufman, and the lining is various prints from Thesaurus by Thomas Knauer. she's also rocking some hot pink hosh pants and (of course!) there's a tumble tee under there :)
my most favorite thing about this pattern is how the it spins... my girls love spinny skirts, and (no surprise here) it turns out that they love spinny cardigans too!
Kahlin is wearing the reversible meridian cardigan in size eight, made with a metallic dot knit from Girl Charlee and a lavender solid jersey from Jo-Ann, and pinned in the center with a beaded flower. and, yes, she's wearing a pair of hosh pants too. hey, we like what we like around here.
and you'll have to excuse the excessive photo parade, but i'm pretty sure these are my most favorite pictures that i've ever taken. these girls are just so sweet.
