She is crawling now!
And she is in everything!
And she keeps loosing her socks
And her knees are all dry and red
As I find something annoying on an every day basis, I search creatively for a stylish way to make it better...often to find out that someone already did and it's on the market somewhere. So I did find a product called SocksOn and I will be trying it shortly.
My mind has been as busy as my body this week (yes, I DID some cleaning, and the main floor now looks presentable to visitors!) and I have been planning out many projects. One thing I am most happy about is the purchase of TWO new Mini Kiwi diapers so I am on the way to disposable-free diapering.
With Deirdre being more independant (and Connor socialising with other toddlers at daycare), I was able to finish something close to my heart!
It is a Vintage Style Baby Bonnet and you can find the free pattern here. I worked on it for over a month, a few evenings at a time. I made some modification to the pattern, as you see, I put cord instead of a button. I used a baby yarn from Bernat but I can't remember which one. I think the gauge was not perfect, so it turned out a little to big for Deirdre, but I am working at adjusting it.
Since I am still a beginner at knitting, I am pretty proud of the end result. And she will be so sweet with it this spring!

I've made a few of these hats for my Ella and she looks very sweet in them. They are very warm as well.
Nice, seems to be a very common pattern. And pretty easy too. Do you have any pictures of the end results on your blog?
Sorry I just saw this question.
If you go back to Dec 26th I have some pics also on my projects in Ravelry I'm Lupie on there.
