f.o. : northgate tweed pullover.
My mum commissioned me to make a baby sweater for her this summer, to gift to a friend. I decided the Northgate Tweed Pullover by OGE Knitwear would be a perfect option–a bit of color work and an adorable shawl collar to give me a bit of interest when knitting. I was able to use…

f.o.: norwegian fir sweater.
My colleague and his wife had a baby this fall. I decided I definitely wanted to make them something. I had some leftover Harrisville Designs Shear from the Morchella Cardigan (which believe it or not I’m going to knit another one with lost of ease) and it was a perfect match for a sweet pattern…

f.o. | elwood baby.
Pattern Details: Elwood by Jenny Wiebe Yarn: Malabrigo Rios (main color: Azul Profundo ; contrasting color: Glazed Carrot. approx. 630 yards total) This is the second Elwood I have knit this spring. The first time around, it was for a colleague having her first kid. This time, it’s for my third nephew, who was born last…

f.o. | camilla babe.
I have been wanting to knit a Camilla Babe by Carrie Bostick Hoge for awhile now–but everyone I would knit for with child had boys or live in deserts, and while I’m very much anti gender specific colors or clothes, this feather and fan lace detail on the front, no matter in what yarn, felt too feminine…

baby knits | purl soho essentials.
I adore Purl Soho patterns–particularly their baby knits, which I’ve made a million times over for the impending bundles in my life. I can’t tell you how many pairs of baby mocs I’ve made–and I always gift them with the garter ear flap hat because I think they go nicely together and can be knit up in…

f.o. | baby mocs.
I made these Purl Bee teeny, tiny little baby mocs for Sean’s newest niece, Sadie. I’ve made a whole bunch of pairs of these in the past (and here), which are more like baby socks than structured booties, which is why I like them so much. Quite frankly, I haven’t met a Purl Bee pattern yet…

pop.
To match that Purl Bee garter flap had I knit the other day. I decided to use my favorite baby sock pattern–Joelle Hoverson’s baby socks from More Last Minute Knitted Gifts. I’ve used it in the past to great results. This time around, I wanted the socks to not just match the hat, but I…

schoolboy vest no. 2.
I made another School Boy vest by the incredible Tanis Lavallee for my friend r.r., who is about to have her second child. Unlike the first one I made, I decided to do the modified version with the scallop edging on the bottom and I love the way it turned out. This vest seems like…

baby mocs, 1/29
My good friend r.r. had her first baby, Owen, in December. She so graciously posed this little man in the moccasins I knit him for his entrance into the world. Smashing, indeed! I used super soft Blue Sky Alpacas sport weight yarn for these booties; scraps of sport weight red and white used for the…

dawn’s peasy, 9.28
A Presto Chango Cardigan for Dawn’s new bundle, in a gorgeous Alpaca wool in a turquoise blue. This is the third Presto I’ve made–I think the fully removable front panel is perfect for a Mum struggling with many over the head clothes. If you’re looking for a baby knit that looks fancier than the work…

boots for baby, 9.28
A former co-worker and friend from my reporting days had her first baby this past week. She will be the best mum to that little girl, I know it. And she deserves the world–so I knit her up a Presto Chango cardigan in a beautiful turquoise (like the sea, since Dawn is a California girl…

Swiftly…
…working on a project to get out to an old co-worker and friend, who is having her first baby girl. Dawn is a dear old friend of mine and know her soon to be baby will look adorable in the Topaz jumper I am making her. The other day, I balled some beautiful and soft…
