The Soccer Sweater/Cardigan

This is my second sweater, it is meant for a boy of 12-18 months.

Since this boy is a european boy, I embellished the sweater with a soccer ball theme. I put 4 buttons in the front, unlike the 3 buttons for the girl sweater, since this one is a little bigger.

I also put a soccer ball on the front, but in the lower corner because it was bigger then the flower on the girls sweater. I am thinking of making a beanie that goes along with this sweater and also will have the soccer ball applique.

The Bow

I tried to make a very simple bow hair clip, I'm sure I will try out more different things with this, but this is my first.

Of course it is Mavericks colors, gotta support that team!

I hot glued it unto the clip, I like this one better then the snap clip. It is perfect since the bow is much bigger then the flower clip.

The Hair Clip Flower

I finally put my flowers on actual hair clips, instead of bobby pins, those always slipped out of my hair. This one is my LA LAKERS flower.

One of my friends makes hair clips with really big bows and I asked her how she attaches them to the hair clip, she suggested hot glue.

This one is my MAVERICKS colored flower, I have been wearing this one for the NBA Finals support. GO MAVS! GO DIRK! :)
