Hello ladies,
how are you today?
Its finally warming up here in Michigan and i am starting to count down the days we leave to go on a trip to Disney. Lots of things still to get.. i wonder each year where those goggles are i purchase each year for the boys :-) Cant wait to hang out by the pool a little bit and enjoy the sun. The kids are now in a age where i do not feel i constantly need to be with them in the water and have an eye on them like an eagle :-)
Speaking of kids...
One of our friends had a baby boy about a week and a half ago.. she had a really bad pregnancy... so happy for her sweet Andrew is healthy and she can hold him in her arms.
I have knitted her a little cardigan and purchases a pair of pants to go
with it. I purchased on purpose not a newborn set because i remember how
many things you get in this size and baby grows so fast, i was not even
able to put those cute little clothes on my boys
The size you see is a size 6 month and up. Think it should work out fine for the fall too with a long sleeved shirt.
I used for this cardigan the same super soft yarn i used for Camilla's baby's sweater, its just so fun to knit with it.
Here are the supplies i used:
Stamp: Magnolia "Baby"
Sentiment: Papertrey ink
Papers: Maja Design
dies: Go Create, Spellbinders Oval
Charm: Handmade with love - Hobby House

Hey, Claudia! Angie just showed your phone book and said it was made by a lovely friend of hers, then gave you a mention! Being a regular visitor, I knew straight away who she meant and just thought I would share with you! I know the show is repeated at 11pm UK time, so 7pm Michigan time and I think you can watch it on the Create and Craft website.
Love your little knitted cardigan and gorgeous gift box, so pretty! Hugs, Lisa x
Dein Geschenkset ist der Wahnsinn liebe Claudia - allerliebst und zuckersüss...!!!
