you look different

Did you lose weight? Get a haircut? Nope, I got an "afterthought buttonhole".

It was so nice of everyone not to notice (or remark on) the totally missing buttonhole on the neck of giranimals #2. Here's a look at giranimals #1 again and a close-up of the neck with obvious buttonhole. It seems that six months ago when I did the knitting on the second jacket, I, whoops, forgot to put a buttonhole in the neck! Elizabeth Zimmerman to the rescue. One little snip and some some quick seaming and you got yourself a buttonhole. No one will ever know.

Um, except all of you, whom I just told.

Tee hee! And here I was thinking that you had omitted it on purpose. It didn't even cross my mind that you had forgotten the buttonhole - I was too busy admiring your perfectly sewn-on collar :-)

Wow, brave enough to do it and braver still to tell. Good job, I'm impressed.
