Tim and I just bought tickets to head to Sydney, Australia at the end of August to meet up with Amy, Adam and baby Alex (yay!).
I had to come bearing gifts, and since baby Alex probably can't drink Indonesian coffee or appreciate a nice batik yet, I decided to knit him something comfy (in addition to the cute grandpa sweater I made him a few weeks ago)...
Pretty cute! I like how big the bottom looks to accommodate diaper butt.
I used this free pattern, which was quite easy (although I had to wing it a bit on the legs due to my continuing fear of double-pointed needles). I made the bib a bit wider (about 4 stitches on each side), but otherwise stuck with the pattern. Used Berroco Comfort yarn.
I could try to get you over your fear of DPNs the next time I see you, if you'd like.
ReplyDeleteI bet you're excited about Australia!
That would be great!
DeleteWe are super excited about Australia... a little bit of the western world would be welcome about now.
Hope all is well with you guys!!
This is one of the top 5 cutest things I have ever seen in my life. Could you maybe make an Amy-sized version so they can dress to match?
ReplyDeleteHa! I'll work on that.
