I love baby sweaters. A homemade sweater is even sweeter. The green sweater is one I made a while back and actually gave to a friend for her baby. After her daughter outgrew it she gave it back to me to use for my daughters.
This is one I knitted. There are some details on it that you can't see in the picture but it makes it one of my favorites. I have made several others to give away but I don't have pictures of them. Baby sweaters are pretty fast to make, don't take a lot of yarn so are very economical and have always in my experience been appreciated.I found some links with patterns that you can go to for ideas and how too.

Have fun!

ReplyDeleteWhat an adorable girl! I would love to learn to make these. Maybe I can have Polly or Peggy teach me. :)
ReplyDeleteI have loved your gift giving ideas. What great timing! I am going to try the one hour sweater for our baby Joseph. I can't wait!
