Baby Sweater Set

While Miss P was working on her Hazel Hedgehog quilt, I knit a baby sweater, booties, and hat. I used Moutain Colors Twizzle from my stash bringing my total of knit from stash items to 19!The booties are a tiny version of Pamela Wynn's Elf Slippers. You can see other, larger shoes I have knit from this pattern herehere, and here.

I knit these booties on smaller needles and did not felt them.The pattern for the hat is Lyalya Hoodie by Natasha Schaffer. I have also made a few of these before. You can see them here, here, and here.

The sweater was knit from the Basic Seamless Crewneck Cardigan pattern in The Complete Book of Raglan Sweaters by Leisure Arts.

I think my new grandbaby will be pretty cute sporting this look next winter. 

Halloween Elf

Here is our little Halloween elf.I made the top from B's old terry/velour bathrobe using Rae's Flashback Skinny Tee pattern. I also added some pink braid from my trim collection.The pattern for the hat is Lyalya Hoodie by Natalia Schaffer. (knit earlier in the year and blogged here.)Pretty close to the design she imagined, I think. She is thrilled with the soft, warm top.
