my mom recently asked me to make a baby shower gift for a friend of hers. i, of course, was happy to do it and i must say, i was very pleased with how it turned out! the gift is actually three items. after i made one item i got another idea to make another item and so on....so her shower gift has three items instead! below are pictures of what i made!
|
i was making these cute little slippers, which i added one of my
fabric flowers instead of a button, and i thought i would
add a cute matching newsboys hat..also with a fabric flower! |
|
this is one of my favorite patterns! i actually tweaked the pattern
because i didn't like how they first came out...but in the end i thought
they were pretty adorable... i can make these size 0-24 months! |
along with this gift i have also been playing around with other slipper patterns.i did make a similiar pair to the pink slippers which are below . i also figured that i have been making alot of girlie items and that it would be fun to make something for a boy. i found a pattern for little loafers! i can make them in 0-24 months as well! they are so darling!!

{Why all the crocheting...}
i can remember back when i was younger spending a lot of time with my dear sweet grandma. she was and still is a very special and very important person that the lord has given to me. in that time growing up i can remember doing all sorts of things with her. spaghetti dinners every tuesday, garage sales anytime, doll shopping all the time, ceramic painting some of the time, playing yahtzee a must, but when it came to my grandma's hobby of crocheting, I was NOT interested. funny now, considering that i can't seem to get the crochet hook out of my hands. my grandma came out for a visit not so long ago and while spending some time with her she taught me how to crochet. this time i was interested. she just taught me the basics, but that's all i needed, and now, well the rest is history. thanks grandma for the lessons, i love you.
