A little kimono sweater!

A few months ago I spun this hand-dyed roving into a two-ply yarn with my drop spindles:
 
 
 
And recently I came across a cute little pattern for an infant kimono-style sweater. I thought I could use this yarn to make a colorful little gift for a baby girl that my sister-in-law is expecting soon.
 
So, over the past few days I've been knitting away. It was a fast knit, and this morning I sewed on the buttons:

 
 
 
Now I just have to wait for the baby girl to come into the world and send it off to her! I'm always so happy when a project is finished : )
