Feeling Autumnal

For August the weather has certainly got an autumnal feeling to it, indeed it has felt quite chilly in the evenings....of course my mind wanders to cosy, winter knits.

This pattern is ideal for the change in seasons.  The stitches used create a warm, cosy feeling fabric, ideal for when baby is out in the pram.

The design caters for premature babies upto 6 months old by simply changing the weight of yarn and needles used.

Instructions are given for the round necked, long sleeved cardigan, brimmed hat with optional pom pom and a matching pair of squishy mittens.

Snuggly Baby Cardigan

I knitted these sets set from my snuggly baby cardigan pattern

The stitch pattern creates a cosy, stretchy fabric and is suitable for both baby girls and baby boys.

Instructions are given to knit the outfit in sizes 0-3 and 3-6 months and is a relatively quick knit.  An ideal pattern for those fairly new to knitting as the simple drop sleeve design keeps shaping to the bare minimum.

A beanie style hat and a matching pair of mittens complete the outfit.

There are so many gorgeous baby yarns around at the moment and once I have completed my latest design project I have a couple in mind to cast on.

Recent Knits.

The weather is very, very chilly and with snow forecast for over the weekend I can see lots of knitting getting done!

I'm in the middle of designing a new pattern for a baby boy.  I've done the first outfit and typed out the pattern so now I am in the middle of checking through the pattern and re-knitting the design to check for errors.  I am hoping to have it ready for release sometime next week (all being well)

It's been bright and sunny here today and if it wasn't so cold you could be mistaken for thinking that it was a summer's day!

I got the camera out and snapped these two little outfits that I recently made
