Baby Clothes - because I had the yarn

Well, this is a new development.  I'm not making things because I have "this amazing pattern that I just have to try out" and then go find yarn for it anymore.  I'm starting to accumulate so much yarn that I have the need to make use of it in some way, shape or form, whether it's particularly useful or not.  Ooops.

I guess I just graduated from "newbie knitter" status to something somewhat more dangerous.

Anyhow, Jenn had this lovely pattern that she sent me... and I don't actually know where the pattern is from because I'm bad like that... BUT... she's got  it somewhere... let's see if I can link to her post with the pattern. 

Right.  That was easy.  Okay, so I made those super cute baby hats (for people!  Not to just sit in my pile of finished knitting... it's small, but it exists!) - the bear and bunny hats - and then I had a ton of left over yarn.  So I thought I'd try out the adorable pattern that Jenn had just finished coz I'm a copy-cat like that.

This is Goldie - she's my baby sized model.  :)

I liked it, so I made two.

It worked out quite well, I'd have to say.  I did have a little bit of trouble with the whole changing colour thing on the pink and white sweater.  This pattern is built so that it does make that white line you can see in the sleeves... you have to change colours at the appropriate time in the body to make it appear everywhere else, which is something I didn't master.  Heh... oh well.  It looks nice now!
