Baby Straightjacket

This did not turn out anything like I expected. I bought the yarn, Plymouth bear hugs, packaged like a kit in a ball, simply too gimmicky for me to resist. The pattern and buttons for the baby sweater were cozily tucked inside.

Well, I didn't read the pattern right and went with all garter stitch. I also lost the bear buttons. The finished cloth is heavy; almost too heavy for any garment let alone one for an infant. Oh well.

Baby Bib

Whoops! I lied again! There was one more baby project... now on to more grown-up things.

Jenelle, don't look!

This is the Caron Spa baby blanket I promised, ready to hit the mail for baby Emilie. No I could not resist the foram appliqué.

(Just one more fetus project to go!)

Baby Stratigrapher Thinking Cap

This is what the soon to be born Swiss, Texan, English baby girl will be receiving instead of a silly baby cape. With matching socks!

Swatch!!!

Here's another Baby Surprise Jacket I'm working on. Oh wait, you don't know about the first one either. It's a surprise...

Baby Socks

Yesterday my white truck was rear-ended by another white truck. Everybody was fine and I think the damage was minimal. My bumper is now oriented about 60 degrees or so south of where it should be, but the new angle provided a nice opportunity to photograph these socks.
