Here is my completed version of the Short 'n Sweet from the S 'n B book. I used Red Heart Plush and lengthened the sleeves and the body ~ hey, it gets cold in Michigan! I also added 2 rows around the entire body of the sweater by alternating FP and BP stitches.

I like your version! I am sorry to hear you were not happy with the
yarn. I have never used the Plush, but this will give me pause before
I consider the purchase of it. I also read on your blog that you are
working a new job. Congrats on that, and I hope it is working well
for you. Oh, and BTW, your dd is gorgeous!

Red Heart Plush is easy to work with, although it will snag on rough skin so you have to keep that in mind. It IS soft and warm, that's for sure.

Thank you! The job is great ~ it's a really fun place to work and I do like the job, so that really helps.

Very nice Tammy, you did a great job on that.
I to like plush, but for clothing it's not the best.

Very soft but snags like crazy
