I love the fit of this onesie! I've already cut out 2 more. Perfection would be if the legs were slightly longer, but I'm no pattern drafter. Do notice that the lapped sleeve is backwards- facing to the back instead of front. Hopefully I won't do that again. Only 3 pattern pieces and easier to make than I thought. It is a must to clip notches to line everything up. Here's the pattern: http://childrensfashionworkshop.squarespace.com/rts-patterns/Friday, July 23, 2010

My photography does not show off this sparklie, shimmery yarn well enough. A woman I knit with made this hat and it was so beautiful, I had to make one too! Her petal details were much better than mine, but those petals are tricky to sew down. It may be easier to do mosaic knitting or intarsia for them. Overall, it is cute and I am happy with it! If we don't have a use for it, paired with some booties, it will make a sweet gift.Wednesday, April 1, 2009

I've seen the 'feather and fan' pattern, but I'm glad I finally found it on a scale I could use. A sweet baby hat made from some wonderful natural cotton. I actually crochet the bottom edge and ties. My crochet skills are embarrassing at best, but I am pleased with how this turned out. I have been eyeing yarn for baby hats like crazy. I have 2 more half done even. Must finish within the next 2 weeks!! I am trying to force myself to complete a couple of things each day from my undone list. So far, so good!

While in Denver, we found the cutest yarn shop! Unfortunately, it was going out of business due to health issues. What a loss for that community! However, I did find a few single skeins of some gorgeous cotton! The picture does not show the luscious softness and subtle color variegation. Since it was only one skein, I knitted this blanket up 2 times in a rectangle shape before trying this third attempt at a square. It is small, but I will use it happily in our warm climate. Now, what to do with the same yarn in pink?Thursday, March 5, 2009
