Wow! I'm on a roll with the sweater challenge! While easy to put together, I rated this card more difficult as knitting the tiny sweater takes time and patience (my own pattern BTW). I knit it on thin needles and transferred it to the toothpick "needles" for the final row. I glued tiny beads on the ends of the toothpicks to make them look more like knitting needles and I used the same beads to sew "buttons" on the tiny sweater. The best way to adhere it to the embossed background is with good double sided tape. Glue does not work (don't ask how I know!). I kept a good amount of yarn to wrap up into a little ball which I glued (yes, now use glue!) over the project. Simple, but a wow at a baby shower!

You are amazing. You knitted a teeny, tiny sweater just to put on this card. Not to mention crafting those pearl enhanced teeny, tiny knitting needles. Wow!
