Babies

We love to knit and crochet for babies. They're small projects that we can usually finish before our attention starts to wander. And babies look so adorable in handmade garments.

We've seen a bunch of very cute baby projects lately. Here's baby Molly in a Sublime hat and jacket, knit by Sandra Dunkin:


Millie looks adorable modelling the Blue Sky Alpacas Sundress:


Millie's mom Ingrid knit the dress. Remember Ingrid, the Rowan Lady? The yarn is the ultra soft BSA dyed organic cotton, we have lots of colours hanging on our BSA walls.

Jen knit this lovely cardigan for her grand-daughter, Cassie:


She used Sirdar Baby Bamboo for this one. Love the colour combo. The design is by Louisa Harding, from her wonderful book, The Magical World According to Miss Millie.

Jen's been busy, she also knit this beautiful blanket for her next grandchild who is due anytime:


This one is sure to become a family heirloom.

Not only do we love to see the handmade baby garments, we love to see the babies themselves. Don't hesitate to bring your babies into our stores, as long as you don't mind sharing them with us for a little while...
