If I Were a Wee One

I'd want to wear overalls covered in cute little elephants.
These are for the newish little son of friends of mine. I think these are just cute enough to be worthy of his cuteness.

I believe the elephant fabric was from superbuzzy, and the dots were from Cia's Palette. Kid's clothes are just the best thing to make. They're quick, relatively inexpensive due to their small size, and usually almost unbearably cute because of that same small-size thing.

He really is going to look smashing in them.

Hats Off!

This was supposed to be a Christmas present, but my timing was bad.
Nonetheless, we apparently have 6 more weeks of winter, so it was appreciated anyway.



It can be hard to knit for other people. I am so not a "brown" person when it comes to color (with a few exceptions) but I have definitely married one. He probably wouldn't have been happy with the seafoam blue-and-red or green-and-purple color-combos I would have knit for myself. When I bought the yarn I had to close my eyes and just hit the "buy" button, hoping it would end up OK.
He's happy. I'm happy.

The pattern is from Hello Yarn and it just has the best name ever.
Maybe I will make the mittens in crazy colors for myself...?
Arrrrrrr!!!!!!
