Little Things are Cute


Sunday evening camped on the sofa with my knitting and this is what I made. The cutest little baby hat... because Stewart's nephew and his partner are having their first baby in March. As we are planning a trip up north of the border next month and will be seeing them, I felt the urge to knit baby things.


And because it really did knit up in just one evening I now have the urge to knit lots more baby things. Last night I finished a pair of matching booties (but it was too dark to photograph them) and today I bought some yarn to make a jacket.


I think I could be tempted to knit baby stuff even if there wasn't a baby on the way... because little things are just so cute!
 

You can find the free pattern here should you be so inclined!

That baby will be so well dressed. I love the hat and that little stalk at the top. He or she will look so adorable in it.

So cute! :)
There s a joy in knitting little things, seeing them finished quickly . I would never ever knit myself something to wear as I would be bored with it before it was finished.

VERY cute! I love baby knits -- I keep hoping there will be a baby around here sometime so I can get lots of baby knit practice!

What a sweet hat and knitting baby things is so rewarding - they work up so quickly and, like you say, are so cute!
