More Baby Knitting
While the baby is busy enjoying his limited days in my belly (he’s on 30 days notice to vacate), I wrapped up some final projects for him.
Here’s a little hat from Ann Budd’s Knitter’s Handy Book of Patterns.
It’s a great book if you like to pick your yarn with only a vague notion of the sort of project you want to use. Or if know what you want to make and the yarn you want to use, but don’t want to do the math to figure out how to make it all work out. An any gauge, any yarn, any needle, any size book. Love it!
Also, love the yarn. Usually, all the different colors and patterns would be achieved with different yarns and complicated charts, but this is self-patterning yarn. So the simpler the pattern, the better, which totally works for me.
And matching socks, just because.
I’ve got one more hat in mind to make for him and then I’m ready for him to arrive.
I looove the yarn. What is it? The hat and socks are cute, too. For a minute I thought it was fair isle. Anyway, you always impress me with your knitting. Hope you’re feeling well. Can’t wait to see the little one soon. We’ll be driving through your way again in Dec. Will you be up for some house guests?
Sheril – the yarn is Bernat Baby Jacquards in Boo Berries. You can get it at Michaels! I don’t have the patience to do Fair Isle, so this is the next best thing. You guys are always welcome to stop by!! We look forward to seeing you again. 🙂
