Knitted Babies

Babies were invented for knitters! Their little clothes only take an evening to whip up and it they look so cozy and lovely! Just look at this little guy!
I'm trying to start a collection of vintage photos of babies in knits. If you have any for me, please let me know.

My baby is about to turn twelve so no more play-suits for him. But I still get to knit baby sweaters for Loop. The Koigu hand-paints have just arrived and we love the spotty ones. I made this Knitbot sweater with just one and half skeins.

 

I couldn't resist popping the crochet corsage on it. Ah, spring babies!

I've been to a Paris needle fair and Wollmeise in Munich in the last few weeks. I 'll be posting about these trips in the next few days. I have so much to catch up on.

I haven't been to your blog for a long time! I don't remember you knitting back then.... hmm, think I have some catching up to do!
Love the baby picture. If I come across any photos of the like, I will most definitely keep you in mind and send links. How about hard copy, old magazines, books?

Hi Juju, I met you at The Paris Aiguille en Fête, I got some Malabrigo from you and started knitting my first Ishbel, I just love Malabrigo, so soft and wonderful colours. This sweater is really cute and is just the perfect knitting project
