Pink booties, is there anything that screams "girl" more then pink booties? The pattern comes from an old Patons book called Early Arrivals bk #702 - kind of ironic because baby M was not an early arrival.
My girlfriend recently had her first baby girl, it was joy for her I tell ya. Not because boys aren't special enough for her; she has 4 - yes, you read that right, 4 sons already and she has made sure her sons lives are filled with all kinds of specialness. But for this family having a baby girl/little sister is da bomb - and for me it gave me oodles of opportunity to do the girly knitting I could never manage to get done when I was expecting my twin girlies.
The sweater is a free download: the Abigail Sweater on ravelry.
The pants are my go-to baby knit pattern: Picky Pants, also available on ravelry for $10.00. I knit these a few years back for baby M's brother P, you can see them here.
The booties are from another old Patons Astra booklet that I had in my collection Patons Astra baby bk # 669. I'll have more specific details on all the pieces once I get things uploaded to my ravelry account.
Oh sweetness - I love these so much! TJ MUST upload some pictures for us to see Baby M modeling these!
ReplyDeleteGreat to catch up with you on Saturday @ MWS! BTW I found the answer to my question about Fringe, we are in the last episode of season 2.
