Welcome to the World Baby Girl Natalie

Saturday, May 01, 2010

This is my newest granddaughter born on April 17, 2010 and her name is Natalie Rachelle -- Isn't she the most beautiful baby you have ever seen?!! When Rebecca told me that her baby was going to be a girl she also gave me permission to knit with pink :) The first thing I knit was this newborn sweater. Normally, I like to knit baby garments for older babies because they'll usually get a few months of wear rather than the few weeks of a newborn garment, but I had some stash yarn available and I ran across this adorable pattern : Seamless Yoked Baby Sweater, Designed by Carole Barenys. My yarn was fingering weight and, as I knit, I periodically compared it a newborn sleeper. No adjustments to the pattern. A fast, fun and interesting knit with a wonderful ... Oh, it's soooooo cute ending!
