FO: Clara Dress

I've been excited to cast on for this project from the day Melynda sent me a surprise kit for it in the mail. That was back when I wasn't sure if I was going to have a boy or a girl. I've actually had it done for some time now and finally have gotten around to taking proper photos of it.


As we know, I ended up having a sweet boy so this dress will eventually go into my 'knitted gifts' basket waiting to be gifted to a special baby girl. For now I've been hanging it on the wall as a work of art - it's just beautiful. It's nice to think about who this dress will end up going to but for now (and maybe for a long time) it's mine to admire. I just love it!

FO: Amelie Dress

Isn't this dress and hat adorable? I casted on for this Amelie Dress with just a week to finish it in time to give it to my cousin for her baby shower. Thankfully this was a quick knit and I had time to make a cute hat to match. This went so fast and was fun to make. I think this will be a go-to knit for the next time I need to make something cute for a baby girl. My cousin loved it too!
