Unicorn Overall and Sweater Set

My Little One's Coming Home Outfit

Here's my sweet little guy modeling his outfit.  He came naturally on January 6th, weighing 8lbs, 20 inches long. We named him Jonah Michael, and we're utterly and completely head over heels in love with him <3

Blue Monkey's With Ears

Monster Set

Yes, this is a repeat of Owie's monster outfit... but who can blame the mama for wanting it?  It's ADORABLE if I do say so myself, and I do :D  I need to get to work on a set for my little newbie.  Made from Cleckheaton Country 8ply washable wool.  After machine washing it, it didn't even look like I'd done anything to it at all. It was absolutely perfect, and nice and soft.  It's listed as DK weight, but it's really more of a light worsted.  I'm definitely gonna have to revisit this yarn for future washables.

Owl Longies with Linen Stitch Cuffs

Owl Skirty Revisited

Fish Hat

Adorable Livvy!

This is my niece Livvy in an adorable outfit I made her... I sure hope my new baby is HALF as cute as she is! And just so everyone is properly impressed, she's not even 7 months old, and is already crawling and sitting up by herself! My sister says she's even starting to pull herself up! She's in big trouble if you ask me. Livvy is very petite also. Most of her clothes that fit are still 0-3 months. Love this bitty girl!

Fall Capris

Old McDonald Had A Farm....

E I E I OOOOOOO :) I love these. I'm gonna have to make a pair for my newbie.

This wonderful mama sent me a couple of pics of her little lady wearing these :D  Apparently every time she puts them on, she has to point out the animals and make their noises.  I LOVE IT! :D

 

Under The Sea

Baby Monkey

This is my niece modeling the little footies I made to bring my newbie home in in January. I think they're adorable :D As is my gorgeous little niece.

Hearts and Stars Skirted Longies

These are made with my very favorite yarn, and I'm so pleased with how they turned out!  The pinks and green go together like a dream.  I really hope I get to see pics of these on their intended!

The Blanket and The Mouse

This little mouse and blanket is made of some of the softest, nicest yarn I've ever worked with.  It's a blend of cotton and cashmere, so it has GORGEOUS stitch definition, and is luxuriously soft.  It's called Aimee, by Louisa Harding. This is actually the second project I've made with this yarn, but I forgot to get pictures of the first one, which was a beautiful double knit lap blanket.  The woman I made these for sent me the yarn, and I think I'm in love with this woman.  Not really.  I'm in love with my husband, but she keeps sending me boxes of this incredible yarn (all different kinds, for all different kinds of projects) and leaves me a lot of leeway to design what she wants.  I've made her a couple of soakers, and now we're working on some home accessories for her house.  I'm really enjoying her projects!  It's nice to take a break from soakers for a bit and do something challenging and different. Wait 'til you see the bedspread I'm making her! Watch out!

Teresa, I'm so glad you found me. I'm so happy to be working with you!  I hope you love this little blankie and mouse as much as I enjoyed making them!

Curtain

This is another project for my dear Teresa.  This is a curtain for her kitchen door window.  It's in simple stockinette, knit on size 15 needles.  The yarn is so beautiful it didn't even need a pattern.  I believe the yarn is cotton and nylon. It's hand dyed and very pretty and fun to work with, though it tangles like a mother!  I think it would make a gorgeous scarf or shawl.  Maybe I'll use the leftovers for a scarf... it's so pretty and actually very soft.  Here is the yarn we used, Canela by Ester Bitran.

More Girly Sock Monkey Longies

This is of course inspired by the Cutest Thing I've Ever Made.  These are only NOT the cutest thing I've ever made because the other ones were newborn and these are toddler sized.  I hope I can get the mama to send me action shots.  The monkey pants are SO much cuter on than just posing on a table.

Hello Kitty Revisited

Every time I've worked on these, the theme from Hello Kitty goes through my head and I say "Hello, Kitty" in my head to myself :)

I LOVE the colors on this.  They remind me of rainbow sherbet, which at the moment is one of my favorite pregnancy cravings.  Sooooooo yummy!  I'm gonna have to text my hubby and make him bring some home tonight. I can't wait to see if the mama will send me some action shots of this one!

The Very Hungry Caterpillar

I'll definitely be making a pair of these for my newbie due in January.  Girl or boy, it'll be PERFECT!  Thanks for the inspiration mama!

Introducing Livvy!

This is my beautiful new niece! She was born just yesterday and I guess my sister had to try on her going home outfit to make sure it would fit since she was just a little smaller than expected; 6lbs 15oz and 18" long. I think she's so sweet! And has the most perfect mouth a baby's ever had. Of course, I made the ladybug skirty :)
