Knitting: Beanie, Toque
This hat is knit from the bottom up, starting with ribbing and goes straight into the bunny motifs. Bunnies are knitted with contrasting color and using the loop stitch to make the cute cotton tails. This hat used most of the main color of the Tynd (223 yards) and about 90 yards of CC. If you would like to make the hat for a child, you can simp...
Knitting: Fingerless Gloves
These hand warmers are designed to be warm and snug without being bulky. These are knit as a tight gauge so that even with many uses the garment wont stretch or distort out of shape. I used 1 Crazy Zauberball for my original pair, and could easily have gotten two small pair out of one ball!
Knitting: Sleepwear
Baby will stay cozy at night or naptime in this snuggly sleeper. The wide opening bib front allows for easy dressing, and the button closure at the bottom gives access for diaper changes.
Knitting: Bonnet
This bonnet is a really fun knit. You begin with the I-cord ties and front edging. Stitches are then picked up along the brim edge and the bonnet is shaped around to the nape of the neck.
Knitting: Cardigan
This lightweight cardigan is worked from the bottom-up in an all over lace pattern. While lace is typically knit for more feminine clothing, I feel that the vertical columns of lace created here, make for a beautifully unisex sweater.
Knitting: Shorts
These little knickers are great for babies on the move. With plenty of room in the bum for even a cloth diaper, and an elastic hem to keep them secure, these are a must in every wardrobe!
Knitting: Onesies
I absolutely love this piece! Knit from the bottom up, with a little short-row shaping to accommodate even a cloth diaper, this Romper is ideal for any baby.
Knitting: Dress
This is a super fun sundress that is great for layering or wearing on its own. On the smaller sizes there is instruction for a button closure between the legs so that crawlers can still move about freely.
Knitting: Baby Blanket
This blanket is worked from the center out, creating beautiful vertical lines of lacework radiating from the center.
Knitting: Pullover
This sweater is worked from the bottom up. The body and sleeves are joined for the yoke. The button detail at the shoulders allows for a high necked sweater that can easily be opened up to pull over baby’s head.
Knitting: Booties
These are great little “stay-on” booties perfect for keeping baby toes warm.
