Sweaters For Baby

I am finally getting around to posting some of my hotel projects, for our soon-to-be granddaughter.
The Little baby diaper shirt is from Lyn's Designs, Danette's Diaper Set, and fits a 0-3 month old baby. I used an F hook and 1 Skein of Baby Bee, Lambkins Baby Boucle, 3000 Froggy, and 1 skein of white Bernat's Baby Coordinates. You can find this sweet pattern here.

The cute little white, braided headband is another of Lyn's designs, found here.

The frilly little white hat will definitely become one of my favorites. It's a Wormie design and you can find it here.

The Infant Teal Hat is Barb's Seamless Crocheted Baby Hat. This easy pattern is here.

The Large flower on the froggy hat is a Nikki Brown design and works for so many projects. You can find her pattern here.

The small flowers on the sweaters is a simple ch3, dbl ch, ch3 flower but turned out just the right size.

Not sure my daughter-in-law will like these, she is a home ec teacher, but doesn't like things that are hand made. hmmm... Oh well lots of new babies coming in this town.

Lace Border Blanket

Last year II had bought a bunch of Baby Bee, Lambkins Baby Boucle, 3000 Froggy on closeout at a local Hobby Lobby. I found this freebie pattern in the yarn aisle and chose this yarn to make the Mississippi trip with me. It went very fast and was so easy, I used a G hook.

Then I started getting nervous when I was running out of yarn, and knew I needed something to co-ordinate with this color blanket, so I played it safe and decided to put the lacey border edging on in, White Bernat's Baby Coordinates.

This lovely Lace Border Blanket is a freebie crochet pattern from Bernat. The blanket turned out a very nice large size, using just 5 skeins of the Froggy.
