Yarn Moms

I know there was a thread awhile back where we were talking knit/crochet and other crafts but damn I can't find it.  who's working on what, and what pattern are you using?  I need some inspiration.
I've made this pattern and this pattern for both my girls before they were born.  both super easy patterns. 
done a couple of sweaters and skirts but it's been a few years.
share what you've made and maybe we can inspire each other.

  • I'm making this blanket:  https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/bounce-6

    And this sweater:  https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/baby-sophisticate-2

    The blanket is on the needles and I bought yarn for the sweater yesterday.  I really like how the blanket is looking, pretty easy but not a mindless pattern.  I'm excited for the sweater!  I also have a pattern for a vest and I'll probably make a few hats.

  • I'm working on a blanket right now that is just a big granny square.  I am not the greatest crocheter, lol.
  • I'm not crocheting anything for Squish since MIL is making the coming home outfit, SIL is making a lovely and friend is making a blanket. But once I get back from my trip I'm starting to cross stitch the birth announcement. Not for mine, but rather a friend's baby, but I made this one earlier in the month.

  • @Kate08Young I am an awful teacher but it is pretty much the only thing I can do.  I can chain, single and double stitch.  That's all I got, lol.
  • I've got legwarmers, hats, and kimono-style sweaters bookmarked on Ravelry. It's just been too hot to want to pick up a project, but I'm going to get started soon.
  • @cayaylonglegs I love the mermaid tail!  omg I must make one now for the sole purpose of photos.  what pattern did you follow?
  • I have an afghan I need to finish. And I'm currently sewing curtains for his room. As much as I'd love to craft more for him I have a lot of family and friends who have already told me they are making things for him so I'm going to wait until my showers are over.

    @zubenescamali - I guess I loosely follows this pattern. I'm actually terrible at deciphering patterns so I usually just mimic pictures to the best of my ability.

  • ugh. for some reason I hate working hdc. it's not like it's a difficult stitch but i find everything i make in hdc just doesn't turn out "right".  it's a pretty stitch so maybe i just need to practice it more lol. 
  • Here is what my chevron blanket should look like, except only 2 colors.

  • I have major envy for all of your crafty abilities ladies!!

    @cayaylonglegs I have that Wall-E sitting in the closet in the nursery! Hopefully one day this LO will want to play with it :)

    I agree @mysteryship
    I have to get inspired to knit with some cooler weather! 
    I am planning on making two pairs of felt booties and I need to make a girl newborn hat. 
    I don't have time for a blanket, so I'm going to sew a flannel swaddle and a cozy one for the car seat. Once we know who this little one is I'll probably make a bigger hat, booties and maybe some Woolie pants. 

    Due December 27th with baby #7




  • I love the fox hat! 
    DD1 5/23/14, DD2 12/5/16   Baby #3 on the way!


  • @BabyRobbinsAdventure - That walle was one of the first gifts DH got for me when we were dating. That movie gives me so many emotions!

    I've made probably about 7 hats in the past month and none of them are for me or baby girl. I should really make her something!
