Baby t-shirt

Today I finished this t-shirt for my son to wear on his 1st birthday. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, though it's far from perfect.

I used Simplicity pattern #5316. It was a pretty easy pattern to follow, but I found working with a knit fabric to be a little difficult. Sewing the snap tape on was a bit of a challenge... and my thread broke MANY times. Lessons learned, I suppose.
