I recently asked your advice on what I should make for my beautiful new niece. So many wonderful ideas and I have stashed some of them away for longer term projects. Grace at http://oldpolicehouse.blogspot.co.uk/ suggested a ribbon blankie and here is my effort...... what do you think?
I made both sides with fleece because I wanted it to be really soft and tactile and I chose ribbons in lots of bright colours.
Now for a little cardi - I know that traditionally it's pink for girls, but I just love blue and dressed my own daughter in it a lot of the time.
I added little crocheted hearts onto the pockets for a girlie touch.... The yarn is beautifully soft and I am sure it will be lovely to wear.Finally (for now anyway) .... a little box...
Want a peek?
Little booties ......
also in blue......
so I shall parcel these up and send them off to the little angel xxx
Such adorable booties! A girl (however old) can never have enough cardis!
