Keeping my promises!

 

So today I finished the mint green beanie to match Sandra's mint green shawl and cardigan. I have posted it to show you, as promised.

I noticed in beanies advertised on Temu that the pom poms are larger than what I used to do in the past. So I made it a little larger. I sent this pic to Sandra and she likes it. I am glad...

So it's forward to the wine red baby blackberry stitch baby cardigan for Jessica's baby. I plan to do some this evening..

Then I will be doing another blue cardigan for Liam's baby boy. Probably my favourite pattern again!

Happiest of times

 

I am currently knitting a wine red baby cardigan with beanie and booties for my granddaughter, Jess who is expecting in July... 

Also, I am working on a mint green beanie with pom pom and some booties to match the cardigan I made for my granddaughter , Sandra who is now expecting in October...

I have found some crocheted baby bibs on the net that I want to do for my grandson Liam's partner who is expecting in June.

My happiest times are when I am doing a few projects at once. As I finish one, I am already planning another project.. I really love being creative!

I will post pictures of them all when I have finished.

I guess I am old school!

 

My babies were dressed like this. Even today I think a handknitted layette looks lovely.

I know life is very busy these days and so it seems that most babies are dressed in jump or grow suits.

I also know that handwashing wool baby clothes can be tiresome, but most yarns these days can be washed in the gentle cycle of one's machine.

Another thing I have noticed is the young mothers these days seem to like deeper colours for their baby's clothes.

I suppose I am showing my age by preferring pastels... in the appropriate gender colours of course! 

I guess I am old school!
