Made for a very good friend of mine.
An 18 month size Baby Sophisticate. I love this sweater. And I especially LOVE the buttons.
I wanted to thank you all for your sweet comments and prayers regarding my last post. It’s been a rough few days, but every day is better and we are so thankful for all of you.
And now, a little something for the boys!
The colors look really different when I used the flash…the colors are much more true to life in the second picture.
It’s up for grabs in my Etsy store, if you want it for your very own!
A hat for a brand new tiny little guy. It’s too small for Sam, but hey, he’s the only model I’ve got right now!
I also made this hat for him, too.
Can’t wait to meet the new little guy!
The Grey and white beanie (complete with the yellow button) is up for sale on my Etsy shop if you want to claim if as your very own!
The yellow button got the most votes on the Facebook page (by a landslide!), so I thought I’d go with the majority on this one!
I need some help from you guys. I can’t decide which button (or lack of) which looks best. Please vote in the comments!
I appreciate any and all input!
Another custom stegosaurus beanie! This time for my good friend Roxy’s little dude!
Sam was doing his best dinosaur impression! I think it was pretty good.
I absolutely love knitting up these dinosaur hats. They are so fun and satisfying to knit up. They’re one of my absolute favorites! I am pretty sure I am going to need one for Sam for this fall. He definitely needs one!
Some custom sweat bands. There’s no limit to what people want to order, I guess.
Uh…forgive the angry face? Blame it on pregnancy hormones, I guess.
In other news, today Sam learned how to say “Uh oh”. So he throws his cup off his highchair and looks at me, grins and says “Uh oh!” and then yells for his dad to come pick it up. Smart kid. He also, very clearly, after dinner said “All done!” We were impressed.
The first rasta-beanie apparently wasn’t enough rasta for the customer and he wanted another one!
Oh my goodness, this one gave me such a headache. It really shouldn’t have been that hard, but pregnancy brain makes even the simplest things difficult, you know?
I guess it is more of a beret? Anyway, I finally figured out it had to knit it intarsia style, and knit it flat. Gah! It took me a long time to figure that out, but once I did it was pretty simple. However, having six skeins of yarn that I was working with was kind of a nightmare! They got all tangled and it was pretty slow going trying to get that all sorted out.
That’s the hat inside out, obviously. I think it looks kind of cool.
But now I know how to knit an intarsia style beanie, knit flat. In case anyone wants to know…
A stegosaurus beanie for a special little guy all the way in Canada! Size 2T.
I whipped this one out late Sunday night. I stayed up extra late just to make sure I could get it in the mail yesterday. I sometimes forget that I need to go to bed early because Sam doesn’t sleep in just because mama is tired. So mama took a nap while Sam napped, always a good choice.
Do you have any special plans for tomorrow?
An adult sized Vandal Helmet!
For a real-student Vandal!
This is consistently one of my favorite patterns to make, and it was fun to make in adult size, too. It was my first time making it adult sized!
But now a certain little dude needs some attention, and mama needs some lunch.
Go Vandals!
