Gramps Sweater: All Buttoned Up!

I'm done with the Gramps sweater!  I finished all the knitting about 2 weeks ago but I didn't have a chance to make the hike out to the fabric store to get buttons until yesterday.  I prefer to go on the weekends so I don't have to bring Drew, but he was a champ!  Such a sweet, patient boy.

It took me a looooooong time to choose buttons.  They just have so many options there and I didn't really love how any of them looked on the sweater.  As I've said before, I think button choice is really important because it can really change the look of the sweater.  I wasn't sure if I wanted a button that just blended in with the sweater or one that stood out.  I ended up going with a dark gray button that has a splash of light gray in the center.  

The good thing about buttons is that they don't have to be permanent.  If I find ones I like better down the line, I can always replace them!  For now I just want him to start wearing this sweater before it gets too warm out!
