A familiar looking sweater

I started the Green Zebra sweater for Drew this past week.  I had to frog it a few times; first, I didn't like where the button holes were ending up, then I realized my gauge was off and I was only getting 4 stitches to the inch instead of 4.5 so my sweater was going to end up a lot bigger than I wanted it to be.

So, this is what I have so far:


The pattern calls for 7-9 buttons, but I am only going to do 4 or 5  think.  I am placing a buttonhole on every blue stripe.

I realized that there was a reason I liked this color combination so much...looks very familiar...

This was my favorite sweatshirt on Drew...and it doesn't hurt that he was in his perma-smile stage when I first bought it for him.  :)
