DH has to buy a gift for a co-workers baby shower. They all got assigned a letter & he got "K" so he's got to pick an item that starts with K. I don't know much about the girl, but so far all I can think of for gifts are knit something or other, a baby K'tan, or see Kai run shoes : ) Any other creative ideas out there. Not looking to spend a ton, but I would like (him to give her) a nice gift, one that is helpful to a new momma.Thanks for your ideas ladies!

I'd go with a Kiddopotamus swaddle me or carseat cover, or baby K'tan. I got a ton of knit items for L as gifts, and barely used them. For one, whatever yarns people used didn't wash well, and I'm not into baby items that require hand-washing and line-drying. For two, the knit items don'ts eem as warm as wovern items. And three, once L started learning about the world, she quickly learned about sticking her thumbs and fingers and toes through all the holes and now the yarns are all pulled and unattractive. It also made me worry that she would get her fingers wrapped up too tight and cut off her circulation. JMO on the knits - I'm sure there are moms that love the stuff.

I just went on BRU.com and sorted by brand, went to K and here is what I got.
Anything by Koala Kids... that is the BRU clothing brand and they make the swaddles and blankets too I think.
Anything by Kimberly Clark which includes Huggies
There are a bunch more... go to BRU and sort the way I did and you will be able to get lots of ideas. Good luck!
Something Disney with Kanga and Roo?
I like the idea of a knit blanket or sweater also.
