Eme1Eme2I have been wanting to knit up this Vintage Duffle Coat by Sublime for my niece for quite some time.  The pattern is in The Fifth Little Sublime Hand Knit Book, which is full of more sweet baby knits.  I finally finished the duffle in time for our early Christmas celebration last week.  I used the called-for Sublime Baby Cashmere Merino Silk DK, in Plum Pie and finished it off with vintage buttons.  (Etsy has a great selection of vintage buttons here).  Baby knits are always so satisfying and relatively quick to make up, and the chubby recipients make even the cutest sweater look even better.

DIY Knit Bloomers

This is one of my favorite knitting patterns.  These bloomers are roomy enough for wearing over big cloth diaper butts, and they are good for layering with tights or leggings as the weather gets colder.  Ada wore her pairs of knitted bloomers for a couple of years and now they have been passed on to Josie.  This new red pair is for cousin Emeline.  The pattern is adapted slightly from Debbie Bliss’s Romper Panties Pattern from Essential Baby.  (Most of the knitted keepsakes at our house are from Essential Baby patterns).  The elastic waistband is added after knitting and I used this tutorial by Knit In Your Pants.  This method of elastic attachment keeps the waistband stretchy, but flat and comfortable.  Hooray for knitting weather!
