Nuriel's Electric Ladyland Dress

Hine is... Nuriel's Electric Ladyland Dress. (She loves Jimi Hendrix music so much that I'm thinking she might be his reincarnation. Haha!) I started  it with my Koigu leftovers, but I purchased an additional skein when I ran out but hadn't gotten to the desired length yet. I love the colors. I used Kelly Broker's Hine pattern and increased 2 stitches underneath each arm every 6th row to achieve the A-line. I love, love the Hine pattern! The garments created are so versatile. It's quite baggy on Nuriel, but I wanted it that way. It should fit her for 2 years or so, eventually becoming a tunic.

I can now tell her to smile for pictures and most often she will do so. She's such a funny girl. 

Yup. My girl. More energy than both of her brothers combined!

I picked three random buttons from my Mom's collection. It seemed that something so colorful doesn't need three identical buttons.
