I had to pull the plug on the baby booties I was trying to knit. The hat apparently gave me a huge confidence boost so when I read “make this pattern when you feel very comfortable using round needles” I figured I was golden. After all, I used them once with no problems so I must be an expert. I have been humbly put back in my place and will attempt said booties at a later time.
Instead of the booties, I turned to JC Handmade’s Best Bib pattern, available on Etsy. Hers are gorgeous. Here are mine (plus a little hat I threw in):
Aside from a sad attempt at free-motion quilting, I was very happy with how they turned out. I’ll definitely use the pattern again. Actually, the girls didn’t want me bringing these bibs to “the baby” so I might go ahead and make some for them.
Oh, and the B on the hat is for Brian, which will be the baby’s name. Can’t wait for the little guy to get here!
Teaser: I will have a tutorial up some time this week. Probably Thursday. This poor blog has been neglected lately, so I’m really excited about having a few things to post about this week. See you soon!
The bibs are awesome… the fabric’s beautiful!
