the blue blog archives: hat trick

Three finished projects in one week. I'm on a roll! Of course, the sweet heart baby sweater here just needed some finishing, like sewing on these adorable buttons! I'm so pleased that this little experiment in readjusting for gauge and resizing worked. I really hope that our cousin likes it. She comes from a family full of knitters, so I was really feeling the pressure to turn out something well made and unique. Still, this project has reminded me of how much I love knitting for babies on the way. Which reminds me, don't I have another baby gift around here in need of finishing.....

That is gorgeous Alison, I love the buttons - they match the darker pink in the sweater so well don't they? I love knitting for babies as well, that's why I'm making all these little shoes - lots of friends with babies on the way..

That is just the sweetest sweater, Alison. I would've loved to receive one just like it -- for myself! *teehee*

Way to go, Alison. You are my hero on cranking out the projects. The baby sweater looks great.

Hope I can find the right buttons for my newly completed toddler sweater. The hearts are perfect for a perfect sweater! Wanna finish something at my house? Keep up the good work.

Adorable sweater! Love the choice of colors - it's so nice to see something other than the typical pink in baby girl clothes :-)
