Thanks for your opinions...

I went with option 2! 

Ta Daaaa! 

Lots of photos in different lights make it look like two cardis! 

Round the back 

I had some button decisions to make...

 I went with just the little purple ones! 

I'm just knitting a little hat with the rest of the ball. Hopefully I'll be able to post a pic of the recipient wearing her new cardi soon! 

Thanks again for all your help - I hope those who voted option one are not too upset!! 

Love from
