A Baby Cardigan and Booties {That went together really fast!}

Last week I got to host a baby shower for a sweet baby girl (who was born last month on my birthday!). I thought it would be fun to crochet a sweater. I found this pattern online and I decided to give it a try.
 I didn't really understand the pattern very well when I first started but I decided to just follow it the best I could and see what happened. Pretty soon it started taking shape and it was very easy! I did end up changing it up a bit by adding scalloped edging. Then I made up my own pattern and made the booties.

I had a lot of fun working on this project especially since it went so fast! I am having fun working with yarn on these cold winter days. I also enjoy doing it when we travel which we have been doing some of lately.


Aaron had fun holding the recipient of the sweater.

    What a sweet little sweater and booties set. I am getting things ready for my sister-in-law's baby shower that is coming up on Saturday.
