Whilst taking a break from knitting a lazy snood with Rowan's Alpaca Cotton yarn I made a few quick baby knits and makes.. When I say a few it's not just one or two but 4!
A few months back I have been asked by a friend to knit/crochet some stuff for their sister's baby. At the point I thought great! I can use up some of my baby yarn that I had lying around amongst my stash. However it was all very boy-ish colours i.e. baby blue and a dark green... Thanks to a magazine that I bought at the start of February which had a nice pattern for baby booties... I kinda changed the colours a little bit...

That was one of the many items that I made.. I am hoping this baby will have big feet... lol!
Next up is the mittens that I made by knitting... To me they look a little bit weird but I guess baby's do have rather small hands

After that I still didn't have enough of making baby makes so I went for a matching hat. When I say matching it's just simply a different colour scheme... Not totally though! Don't look too closely now as I see a few mistakes already...

As though that wasn't enough look at my last photo for this and you can see i made a rather colourful burp cloth too...

That is the lot. My partner seen all this and asked who are these for? Our kids? I was like nope, it's just for a friend. I think if I was pregnant I would be making a lot more than this and probably put more time into it.
