I keep getting side tracked and end up making other things! LOL!! I made bubby a little wash cloth then decided I was going to change tack for a day or so and make a doll.. Im hoping it turns out the size it said.. 20 inches.. if not, I ve made a big booboo!! :rofl

was thinking of doing a nappy bag.. not sure yet.. have to wait and see how im feeling after the doll first. prob change my mind again! LOL! So many things I want to make and not enough hands and time to do them all!!

pic is the start of my doll, wash cloth is about 5 inches long.. will be ok to wipe little messy faces i guess..

I haven't done a lot of baby crocheting lately, but I did finish this premie round ripple. I'm using the same yarn to make a diagonal box stitch baby blanket for the local pregnancy resource center.

 

That is very pretty!

Finished a couple of my WIP's now I'm at home on maternity leave!!

 

These are 2 things I've made for a colleague who's baby is due 7th Sept - she hasn't found out if it's a boy or a girl but I tried to use colours other than cream and yellow!

I'm finishing off a cardigan for my own little bump so as soon as I have the millions of ends woven in (didn't think about that when I picked a pattern with stripy sleeves!!) I'll post a pic!

 

Thanks for looking!

ive made this last week, 5 premmie snuggle caps, diaper covers, premmie jumper, and a premmie dress top. going to donate them to the local neonatal intensive care ward. when i rang them last week, they were so greatful, no one donates to them which is a total shame, so im now on a mission to make as much as I can for these poor lil bundles of joy that have been born so tiny.. im going to got onto all my mates and get them to do the same.. even a pair of socks or a little blanket, it all makes sucj a massive difference to these tiny little ones.

Here is the baby set I finished last night. (I still have to buy buttons for the sweater)

The sweater and booties are from a Leisure Arts booklet that was gifted to me by Pineapple Queen. The hat sort of matches, but it is my own deswign. (I didn't care for the matching one) The set will go to the local pregnancy resource center.
