Adorable Baby Dress

A customer just finished this adorable baby dress. Isn't it too cute with the flower at the waist? I love knit sleeveless dresses for baby girls because they are so versatile. They can be worn year-round, just add a shirt and tights for winter. And as the baby grows into a toddler, add pants or leggings and the dress becomes a top.

Oh baby

These precious baby sandals are from a new Debbie Bliss book, The Knitter's Year. The book is packed with a variety of small projects that make great gifts. Or, the book would make a very nice gift for any knitter from novice to experienced.

A Vest

I haven't finished a project in a long time. But I finally completed this little boy's vest. It is from Sirdar's Little Sweet Peas. I knit it out of Classic Elite's Moorland. I love this yarn. It has just the slightest varitation of color which makes it so pretty.

T is for.........

This is Lullabye from Louisa Harding's Bizoo Bizu. The pattern calls for duplicate stitching the initial on the front. But I knit the T in intarsia since I knew I would never finish the sweater if I embroidered it later. Isn't it cute? I can't wait to see Theo in it!

Cute!!

This is Mary Mary from Louisa Harding's baby book, Bizoo Bizu. A customer knit it for a baby gift. Isn't it absolutely adorable?

Baby Hat Kits

Look at these adorable baby hats. They are very easy to knit and make great quick gifts. Buy two skeins of yarn for $15 and receive the pattern. The yarns come in other coordinating colors as well. Hurry in for the best selection.

Two More Finished Projects!

Doesn't it feel good to finish projects that have taken way too long? It feels even better if you are happy with the results. I just finished two long over due projects that I am really happy with. Here they are: This first sweater is "Hank" from RYC Classic Babies. I started it so long ago, I didn't even know if it was for a boy or girl. Now he is 15 months old and it just fits. But it looks so cute on him, he is going to wear it every day until it doesn't fit. I knit it out of an old discontinued yarn but any dk weight yarn would work. We still have the book and plenty of yarn options.

The second sweater is a Penny Straker pattern. I just think the owls,which are made from cables, are so adorable. This didn't take long to knit at all. I used the Ella Rae Classic which is such a dream to work with. And very inexpensive! This sweater was under $20 to knit. But it took too long because I hate to sew on buttons and this called for 16 tiny buttons for the eyes (and that's not even counting the 5 for the front placket). It looks great on my son, though, and I think he's worth sewing on a few buttons for!
