almost finished lavender cardi

back to my lavender cardi project... i am afraid it may not fit with my mom size.. a little bit tight on her.. and knowing her, she may not too like fit clothes... but if she doesnt want to, i can always wear it.. :)

so here it is, after the finishing phases: sewing all parts, crocheted picot all around (found this is quite time consuming... same like put the tassels!!) ... here are some details i can share with you all....

lav card back

as for the buttons... i am thinking to put the pearl beads ... make the cardi look little "classy" type..... or perhaps just the transparant bead..

total would be take about 10 buttons... i bought this beads on area called Pasar Baru. A central shopping area for fabrics (mostly the stores are owned by India people) and material for weddings stuffs so thats includes tailored-handmade shoes/sandals, tiaras, beads but hardly yarn, central of beauty salon supplies too.. i can forgive havent find the yarns store here, since there are lots of yummy food...(cakes/pastries/snacks) chinese, india, indonesia, dutch yumm.....yummm......very womanly area.. he.. he.. ;)

back to the project, i will to sew some of the pearl to this cardi.. and see if that will fit with the button hole.

*ps: i will put some info on this project , suc as yarns info and project length...*
