Little pink cardigan

This week I knitted a pale pink cardigan using a pattern I found in the local charity shop a few months ago.

I used #Jame C Brett super soft baby double knit 100% acrylic which machine washable but not tumble dryable.

This little cardigan fits a new born 14" chest and has a round snug fit neck to keep baby warm.

It has a pretty lace panel body and a peep hole top it would be lovely over a little dress or babygro

Surprise request

last week I had a surprise request from a family member, to make 2 sets of snowman mitts and matching hats, these were made from super soft #stylecraft double knit and oddments of orange for the noses and black for the eyes.

I can't wait to see the new babies wearing these.

Trouser suit

These little trousers remind me of the old fashioned pram suits your used to get many years ago before snowsuits were invented, and with the addition of a smart matching little jumper really makes a cute little set, and I have enough yarn to make a little hat to match at some point before the weather gets to cold.  

This set will for 16" chest which is an average 3 month baby.

To make these I used #Patons Fab DK, in white with random blue, grey and brown splashes of colour,  this yard is machine washable and tumble dryable always good.
