Making a Vintage Baby Top

I've been working on this baby top for a long time, and it's FINALLY starting to look like the photo in the knitting book. I'm using a pattern from a vintage Bear Brand Baby knitting book.


Here's the pattern photo in the book:


And here's my knitting so far:


I'm using a pretty vintage cotton yarn, called "Cotton Carole" by Jessan. I just love the fabric it makes.


I got the yarn in a vintage knitting kit on eBay. It looks like this kit was originally sold at Kmart!!!
