I had the crazy idea to knit baby hats for the women delivering babies in my Centering Pregnancy group. Sam kept reminding me that I have a LOT of these groups, and it would be a ridiculous number of hats. (From my perspective, that was sort of the point.) So during Holy Week, I was frantically knitting baby hats. Cute, no?
We had the baby shower on Easter Monday, and none of my patients were excited about them. Sam wins. I won’t be doing that again. But I thought they were cute. (And they were in this really soft natural organic cotton… I’m sure I’ll knit with it again.)
Take two: M was invited to a birthday party with friends who have American girls. “Could you make them some doll clothes?” she asked. So we did.
First up, the sweatshirt.
I traced Julie and added a half-inch on every seam… and the stupid thing is nowhere near fitting over her head. So take three: skirts. Because every American girl needs a denim skirt and a lightweight summer swirly skirt, no?
What is a Centering Pregnancy group?
Centering Pregnancy is a program for prenatal care that involves a 90 minute shared medical appointment (instead of your standard 12-15 min appt) each month with 8-12 other women due around the same time. Here’s a link: https://www.centeringhealthcare.org/pages/centering-model/pregnancy-overview.php.
Annie, I LOVE these hats. If nobody else is appreciative, save them for my future babies, who will wear them with pride.
Too bad you don’t want a tiny knit wedding dress.
Maybe not a TINY one…
I LOVE those hats! So cute! My favorite is the one in the bottom right-hand corner of the photo. Adorable!
The swirl. That one was fun. Thanks, Stacy!
