We got a new niece! My girls got a new cousin and Reagan a first cousin once removed, thanks to my brother Sean and his wife, Kristin. She is a cutie and will help make the holidays so much fun from here on in!
She has been rocking the handknits.
That sweater/hat pattern is one of my favorite patterns. It is so clever, the increases on the top down yoke are tucked in right next to the cables and the decreases on the hat are the same. The pattern itself isn't too tough, but the translation is a little sketchy, so it takes some attention.
- Pattern: Korrigan by Solenn Couix-Loarer (ravelry link)
le bonnet du korrigan (ravelry link)
Priscilla's Dream Socks (ravelry link) (adapted for baby feet by me) - Yarn: Dream In Color Smooshy with Cashmere in Vague Unease (I love this color!)
- Needles: Ummm.....
- Cast On: May 6, 2014
- Bound Off: May 10, 2014.
This yarn is so soft and cushy, really nice for baby knits.
The blanket above was blogged here. I made this sweater set in a smaller size for Reagan, I'll take up a day of posting with that one later. I really want to make it again, seeing as Reagan out grew hers by the time she was a month or so old, she should have another.
Thirty-four. The holiday music season starts tomorrow at my house! Yay!
That's a beautiful sweater set.

Baby is cuter than the sweater/hat/booties and she looks fabulous in them! She'll get spoiled by all of Mum-mum's great hand knits and you'll be knitting for her your whole life. How fun is that?!
