One week since my last post, and a week when we got back to normal with work and school resuming and me getting back to the drawing board for a lot of illustration work for my book......
.........last week i mentioned i would show you what ive been making over the last few months for my dear little new baby grandson......first of all, this little bunny was made especially for him........a boy bunny;)...............he doesnt have a name yet but when one has been chosen i will let you know.............. this bunny will sit on the shelf in the nursery until baby rhys is old enough to play with him.......
............and then he might want to play with this little cart too.......i found it on my travels a while ago and thought it would be perfect for a bunny to ride in......
................besides the little boy bunny i did some baby knitting.....my favourite kind.....
............using this gorgeous baby cashmerino yarn.......so soft and fine and beautiful to knit with......
...............i made the little striped hat from the baby cashmerino book 2 by debbie bliss.....
.............and my final baby make (so far) was a simple striped crochet blanket.......
..........rosie and i chose the aqua blue (beach) and cream (cornish) from the rooster almerino range as the colours tied in nicely with the nursery bedding they had chosen...........this is a cot blanket and I didnt have a pattern but measured the cot we have here from when charlie and daisy were tiny and used to nap here sometimes..............
...............i worked the blanket in granny stripes with a 4mm hook and made a simple border with three rows of double crochet...........it took a lot of yarn and i had to order some more (twice)........
.............it is very soft and warm and snuggly............
.................and here is the little treasure who will be snuggling up in it soon.......we are all living in baby bliss here at the moment, looking forward so much to the next visit and the next cuddle..............
.............thank you for your visits here to my little blog space, dear readers, and for sharing the making, the crafting and the joys of life :)...........and a special thank you for all your sweet comments on my last post about baby rhys.......what a lovely welcome to the world ..........wishing you all a happy week with cosy crafty times........back soon xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
