FINALLY I can share our exciting news
After trying for so long and enduring IVF during covid lockdown
My beautiful daughter in law and son are having a baby girl due in April
We are so very very happy
I’ve been busy crafting for the newest princess but I haven’t been
Able to share what I’ve made because of the need to wait for the great reveal lol
I did show you some of these squares and this is the end result
When I started this they hadn’t even begun ivf but I was just so positive it was going to work
And when I finished it. DIL was pregnant but we didn’t know the sex as yet
I made a couple of hats a cream one and a collingwood coloured one.
This granddaughter is going to be mine to brainwash and bring her in on my team lol
Once we knew the sex I started making the cute girly things
A couple of jackets
Pretty in pink of course
Pretty in pink of course
I’ve also made some bibs and wash clothes in cotton
DIL loves doctor who so a couple of whovian cloths and a Harry Potter one
Of course there is the abc blocks as well
So now you now what I’ve been up too
Hopefully lockdown will end soon and I’ll be able to hug my daughter in law and rub her belly lol
It’s been so hard keeping the exciting news secret
Kinda why I’ve been MIA lately on the blog
But get ready for lots of baby related knitting and crochet now
Hope you are all safe and well
See ya
Very very positive news. I can see why you're jumping with joy. And by gosh what gorgeous crochet you do. Those squares and bibs are inspired . I am so envious of your creations. A koala, Dr Who. I'm making plain old granny squares. I think I need to take my squares up a notch after seeing yours.
ReplyDeleteAll the very best to you and your d in law and all the family!

This is where I got the patterns
Wow - that is factory class knitting (I mean the amount not the appearance) -the appearance is that your grand-daughter is going to have beautiful one-offs that no one else could buy. That blanket is amazing and I love the little jacket with the tapering chevrons (the mind has been working overtime to try and reverse engineer the pattern!) Mr B's daughters unfortunately don't go in for hand-knits for their kids.

The chevron is an old pattern that you can find on Pinterest I’ll find
The link and post it.
It’s so easy you can even make them and give them to charity
