We're donating our yarn and our time, so all proceeds, less paypal, postage, and etsy fees, will go to help "bridge the gap that exists between young people with disabilities and the world around them". Thanks to your support last fall, we were able to donate $1200 to the foundation!
I don't know if this is the first item finished for the sale, but it's the first item posted!
It's a cute little baby jacket, knit with a very multi-colored machine washable wool/acrylic blend yarn. The three buttons are in the shape of little crayons. Nauseatingly cute, eh? It's for a baby - it's allowed!
The jacket's about 10" tall and 18" around just under the arms, with extra fullness around the bottom. It's squishy and stretchy, and not itchy at all. I thought I might glam up the neckline a bit with a collar, but that might just annoy the baby. I'm up for suggestions, though, since I've never had one!
We love comments! Would a collar improve the jacket? What would you like to see us make? Baby items? Scarves? Hats? Lace? Christmas ornaments? Ideas very welcome!

Commenting again fixing my typos. I wish there were a way to edit our comments! What I had said before (hopefully without typos):
I think the jacket's great as is. I love the crayon buttons. (I collect Crayola crayons and the Crayola Hallmark ornaments!)
It's hard to believe it's been a almost a year that I was scrambling to get my lace stole finished and blocked in time for the sale!
