Baby items

I have had a few requests to make some baby shoes and headbands, they are all for girls (obviously!!) and I have used many shades of pink, and different styles of flowers. In amongst them I was also asked to make some slippers for the mums of the babies. I have enjoyed the variety from making hats and looking forward to getting some cotton to make summer bands and items.
Here are the pics



 I am now making my first ever crochet baby cardigan, I am using a Peter Pan pattern that I bought in local shop, iits quite tricky having to reverse patterns to make opposite sides (my brain like clear follow me instructions) and I'm not looking forward to putting it all together as I am bound to make a few mistakes!! I'm hoping it will turn out ok and then will have to decorate it so its a bit funky - I like to add my own uniqueness to things :)

Christmas is coming.......

I have started my Christmas makes. Today I have managed a pair of Mary-Jane slippers - I am going to make them for all the ladies in my family if I have time, and in a variety of colours I hope as I will get bored if I keep doing the same old thing. I got this pattern from "I love crochet" magazine, however the first pair I made fit my 6 year old daughter. So I used a bigger needle size and added a couple of extra rows here and there.


My second Christmas make was a ribbed ear warmer headband. I love this so much I am definitely going to make one for myself


My husband is however, asking me to make him a willy-warmer!! #heneedshelp!!!
