RATTLING THOSE NEEDLES!

Hellooooo lovely Christmasy friends!  Its really hard to know what to give a baby for its first Christmas.  I am only an Aunty and I know that the new Grandparents will probably go overboard & buy posh stuff with '1st Christmas' on....which is good but left me thinking.  Little babies have no clue its Christmas except that they like looking at the sparkly lights & baubles.  So I got out my knitting needles, which took some finding I can tell you...so at least these babies will be snuggly buggly warm eh hehe

These 1st two are for Max, my nephew, who will be 6weeks...so these are 16" chests...awe...


These are for Faith who will be 8wks and is my step-grandaughter...so these are 18" chest.....awe again haha...


I have really enjoyed getting the old needles out again but I only go up to a 3yr old...gets toooo big after that haha!!! 

 and finally...

A big thank you to all of you who have followed & commented on my blog this year, I treasure each & everyone of you x!!!

HAVE A WONDERFUL CHRISTMAS & MAY 2011 BE FULL OF ALL THE THINGS YOU WISH FOR AND MORE XXXXXXXX

Oh Karen your knitted garments are adorable. Thought my favourite was the half stripy jacket until I saw that colourful little top for baby Faith. So bright and colourful.
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU & YOUR FAMILY.
