This one from Lionbrand is easy.
First, you might have to register to see it, no big deal though. :)
Second, it's made in homespun but I really think you could do it in something lighter and a color for her.
Third, it's worked from the bottom up so you can stop when you think it's just right rather than going until they say to stop.

A lacy shawl also worked from the bottom up:

This one is done is squares so again you can adjust to her size:

Blossoms you connect much the way you would squares:

There are a lot more here. Just keep in mind you probably want something that works from the bottom up.
