Still a Blog about Yarnyness.

If you have been wondering lately, I am still crafting. Just a little behind with the blogging.

Same time, last year, fellow blogger Sam Lamb, came out with this little cute pattern. At the time, I was already knitting up a storm and had way too many crafty things to finish before the Queen arrived. So this was a "save" for toddler-life. Geez. She is going to be a year next week.

So here you go. Super cute baby t-shirt vest. I made a 12-18 months size by using worsted weight yarn. Mis-matched buttons because---well, that's what I had. After I cast on, I just winged it and used the photos as a guide. This pattern is certainly a winner.
