Meet the Model! PDF now in Sidebar

I had so much fun today, taking these photos was such a treat! This darling baby was born on the 5th January 2009, so she is just 10 days old and behaved like an angel!  This top photo is of me holding her in my snuggle sock design.  Barry took this shot. She was so lovely to hold in this squidgy bag and the hat fitted so well. I will probably write up the pattern tomorrow, I mean today after I have slept.  It is 00.32 am here and we have just got in from a meal out and a pub quiz.  Great fun but I can't switch off now!




This is a pretty little top I made for her too, it is called Autumn Leaves on Ravelry.  I just made it with finer yarn to fit a newborn and decreased a few stitches on each sleeve to make them 'puff' a bit.  Mum loved all the hand knits and I got to photograph them being modelled, fair do's!
I had another wedding booking today, always feels good when we come highly recommended.  This year is getting busy!

Hello!
What a gorgeous baby! Only 10 days old and is perfect :D AAAwww.
It's so easy and addictive to stay up all night knitting and blogging. I do that all the time.
The snuggle sock and the autumn leaf patterns are amazing!

The photo of her feet is just beautiful - would make a wonderful 'birth announcement' card!
