Crochet: Baby Sweater




These pictures are kind of backwards. The one at the bottom is supposed to be at the top. That's how the baby sweater started out. I like this pattern alot. It starts from the shoulder and neckline and works it's way down. I would like to take this pattern one day and try and make a sweater for myself. I think I could do it.
And of course, I didn't finish the sweater in time, but the mom of the baby really liked it. I was surprised though, when I put it up against the baby, it was too big. The baby was only 2 weeks old, so maybe I didn't gauge it right. Oh well. Good thing a baby can grow into stuff.
(Oh and I did get that tangled yarn at the top free. It took some time though, but I was finally able to work through it).

Crochet: Newborn Baby Set

Just an update to say that I did finish the hat and the baby booties. She liked them and said they looked professional. I had made a mistake on the hat and I knew she saw it, but thank goodness family can overlook stuff like that.
Whew!
But now I'm on to a baby sweater. Let's hope that goes just as good.
(By the way, sorry no picture of the booties, I think I was just so happy they were done on time, I had forgot. I'll try and do better with the sweater).
