Yikes Pink Stripes

Found this pattern on Ravelry
I loved the look of it


I was disappointed in the sizing.  It was long and thin which should have fitted Miss R just fine but after 3 attempts I finally made the 4 year old size using larger needles.  This turned out to be just 21 inches around.  I am not hopeful that it will fit.

I still love the look and will try again with thicker yarn and an even larger size.

Size: 4 Years
Pattern: Yikes! Stripes by Yarn Madness
Yarn: Sirdar Snuggly DK

Colour: Party Pink, Strawberry Mousse, Lilac


Edited to add:
It didn't fit a very slim 2 year old! So it is in the donation pile.  I'll try again with thicker yarn and larger needles.  I think there is going to be some math in my future!!
