Meet ABBIE, the little sister shrug of ABIGALE. It really is a girls' sized version of my favourite shrug. Still a sleek, close fitting garment with optional thumbholes,...
short-row shaping to eliminate unwanted excess fabric in the back,...
and a new, pretty, lace cuff detail (ABIGALE's cuff sports mini cables).
My little model sure had fun playing around the garden in her's,...
and it even met the approval of the garden fairy!
