Knit: Chevron Baby Bonnet

I found a pattern for a bonnet and then I found a pattern for a chevron/zig-zag blanket and I combined the two to make this gem:
Would be adorable in gray and pink, gray and lavender, the sky is the limit.
Can't wait for the baby to be born to take pictures of a real baby and all this cute stuff I've been crafting up.

Knit: "Boob" Breastfeeding Hat

Got a request for one of these:
And of course I love it. As an avid promoter of breastfeeding myself I strongly support the whimsy as well as the statement these hats make. I am currently working one up for myself with the birth of my second child due in the next month or so!  It's our simple knit hat with a tiny color change at the top and small I-cord. :-) Genius. Of course could be tailored to all skin tones/etc. to make it more believable. Action shot available in a few months.

Crochet: Snake Toy

After the success of the Very Hungry Caterpillar toy when my favorite blog Repeat Crafter Me posted a snake toy I couldn't resist and had it done within 24 hours of being posted. There are so many options for varigated yarn out there - this is the scrap I happened to have laying around - the same with the green head, but the babe loves it and carries it around "sssss-ing" everyone and ticking them with the snakes tongue. I just love making her happy.

Crochet: The Very Hungry Caterpillar

I found a great blog with a free pattern: http://hollywood-cerise.blogspot.com/2012/04/once-upon-time-there-was-very-hungry.html - The baby loved it! She carries it around everywhere.

Make one of your own or hit me up! :-)
