What’s on the needles retro mummy? Well a few things are on the go. Unfortunately cleaning up my craft room revealed a few more projects on needles. Quite a few more. What is it with crafters and our UFO’s? Honestly, if there was an award for the greatest number of unfinished craft projects lying around I would win it. Hands down. But in between researching and doing the sums on a potential house in the country and driving in the car there has been a teensy bit of knitting. Mind you sometimes the knitting in the car makes me a little carsick and I need to stop.
But I am absolutely determined to knit something for each little person this winter. I will get there. This is for Elodie and is the Easy Baby Cardigan from More Last Minute Knitted Gifts. A book I am just loving. I’m using Bendigo (surprise, surprise) Rustic and it’s knitting up so beautifully. Unfortunately you can’t get this colour anymore but it’s going to be perfect with so many outfits.
This Baby Gap jacket is my all time favourite baby outfit!
But I better knit faster because this girl is growing.
I think the pictures speak for themselves. One happy + content baby!
Hi Corrie, pretty sure I’d win the UFO comp !! Love your knitting projects, pink I note. Just love love that little bunny jacket what a pretty pic. Happy days chris xx
I have ufo’s of every kind as well.Elodie is so cute and totally makes me want a 4th!
ohh Corrie, that is the cutest little girl. loving those cheeks especially ♥
Awww she is gorgeous!!!!
Soooo cute is little Elodie!! Unfinished projects…..well at least there’s always something to pick up and do when the desire hits!!
awww isn’t she just adorable and oh so cuddly!!
I too have many projects waiting to be finished.
Oh UFO’s always linger in my stash too. The highlands knits up beautifully and it is a pity they have run out of the linen color. You make me feeling like staying home in the warmth and knitting while watching a nice movie now.
That is such a beautiful pattern … I love that book too!
Happy knitting for your adorable one …
gorgeous picture, sweet knitting too!
just wanted to leave a comment and say that I am thinking and praying for you on Sunday. It is such a wonderful time for mums but a hard one when you have lost one. May God bless you and wrap His arms around you. Lots of Love Emma xx
Oh my goodness! Doesn’t Elodie just have the most squeezable cheeks?! What a little doll. 😀
Elodie is growing up so fast..she looks so little girlish now..especially in her denim and jacket! Knit, knit, knit as fast as you can Retromummy, you haven’t a moment to lose..those kids are growing bigger by the day! LOL..xox
I’ll give you a run in the UFO comp especially if we count knitting & quilting. I love knitting in the car but haven’t been far lately to get some done. Elodie is a precious little thing & love her hoodie. Tracee xx
