thank you very much for all your positive and helpful comments... the crop and dof were intentional, of course, but it was interesting to hear whether people liked the effect of it or not...

If the eyes had been in focus too, this would have been a really gret shot

I'm not sure the DOF decision worked. I always prefer sharp eyes, but beyond that, this is nicely done.

Great idea, I wish the eyes were as crisp as the yarn.

Good work this - and like the title. I think it such a simple composition you mgith need to really centre the eyes both in the gap of the woollen, and more evenly in frame - that left eye is perahps too far out of things. Good sense of the prickly warmth of the wool, and good rendition of the colours - just a touch over-exposed on the white parts of the pattern though.

Ohhh, very nice photograph. The knitted cap and scarf are perfect for this little one. I know it must have been a deliberate decision to have the child's eyes out of focus in the frame, but I wish you'd gone the other way. The little mischievious eyes would have put the Wow in this picture!
