v for vivi by Donna Higgins
A baby sweater with their initial on it. Good luck not crying at the shower.
v for vivi is a seamless top-down raglan pullover from Donna Higgins for Big Bad Wool, finished with an embroidered monogram. The pattern includes a chart for the monogram and two alphabet fonts to choose from.
The embroidery is optional, but trust us, it's worth it. Sized from preemie all the way to 4.
Made to be used, gently washed, and loved to pieces. Finish it with a 'wear it out' sewn-in tag, and when you're gifting, add a 'wear it out' hang tag with care instructions.
