Keep Calm, Craft On: More Baby Knits

Joining Nicole for another Keep Calm, Craft On post.


I am still working on baby knits this week (I am obsessed!). I have no finished projects to show other than a pair of baby leg warmers that I am about to cast off. They are made with Cascade Yarns Eco Duo Undyed Baby Alpaca and Merino. Such soft yarn in beautiful earthy tones...


Another project that I just cast on is a pair of bootees in Noro Kureyon. Amazing colours!


I am getting really inspired by two books that I have been looking through and I thought I would share them here. I am very happy with my recent purchase of Vintage Knits for Modern Babies after seeing it so many times on Tonya's blog. It does have many interesting projects that I would like to knit. Also, the Emroidery Companion is one of the cutest embroidery books that I have come across in a while. I recommend both, although I have not yet tried any of the patterns in Vintage Knits (soon though...).


Happy crafting on!

  1. Your knitting looks so nice sitting in the basket, and I must check out the embroidery book you have :-)

    1. Thank you for your comment Happy W. Hearts! I agree, a basket full of lovely yarn is one of the nicest things!
