Snowman Cocoon and Hat

After sorting my huge stash of yarn a few weeks ago I am now determined to start knitting my way through it!

I have quite a few balls of  Sirdar Snowflake Chunky yarn but was unsure what to turn it into.  After a couple of days deliberating I took my lead from the name of the yarn 'snowflake' and came up with a Christmas themed cocoon and hat set.

The cocoon is made to resemble a snowman by adding buttons to the hat and down the front of the coat and I made two 'snowballs' one to top the hat and one stitched to the bottom of the cocoon.

I think it would look great for a babies first Christmas photo shoot or a great photo prop for the reborn doll artist to display their reborns.

The set can be found in  my ebay shop here: Tipeetoes Ebay Shop

It's been a beautiful, warm sunny day and the gorgeous weather spurred me into action and I finally got around to taking some pics of the baby items I've been working on....

A knitted cocoon and hat set...great for babies first photo's

 

Knitted Car Seat Blankets with matching hats....so cute!

Two Granny Square Blankets....I'm still addicted to making these, I love turning those little squares into warm and cosy blankets

Toddlers Cardigan...I think this would look so cute over a pair of jeans or denim skirt and tights.

and finally newborn diaper covers.. I used Squiggle Chunky for these and love the great colour choices available.

I've listed all  the above items in my ebay shop : Precious Newborn Knits

My new knitting design 'Lara' has gone to be test knitted today so fingers crossed I should have the pattern available in the next week or so.
