PRETTY IN PINK

Here is what has kept me so busy these last few weeks. That and the fact that I am a slooowwww knitter! These are for my neice who is expecting a baby girl in June!

This is a free pattern from lionbrand for the angel headband which you can find HERE and the free bootie pattern which can be found HERE.

This is the 5 hour baby sweater. I just did the bottom in straight garter stitch since you wouldn't be able to see the original design with the fun fur yarn. Cute, yes?? I think the ribbon adds to it too. Most of the time I omit the ribbon but I like it on this one.

This pattern is also free from lion brand. I really liked working up this set! The pattern was very easy to remember!

HERE is the link to this free pattern. The set is so cute! The hat is to be worn as a tam. I used one skein of Bernat Softee and had plenty to work up the sweater, hat and booties.

EGGSCELLENT!

This is the panoramic Easter Egg that Shane made in his Culinary class! Isn't a lovely confection??!!! There are sweet roses on the top of the egg and cute little bees! It sits on a high Purple pedestal of more sweet sugar.
Inside this delightful confection, are the cutest chicks and ladybugs! Unfortunately, I am not the best photographer and my camera is already a bit dated but you get the idea, yes?? Here is Isabella getting her Spring shave! Can you tell that she really does not like this ritual??? She bit me several times even though she really is a sweet girl. I eventually put on dh's leather gloves to finish the job!
