Baby Knits

These are a couple of things that I knitted recently for some new babies.  This one is one that is knitted sideways.  I've done another one before and I like the look with the lace design.

 This sweater I've also done in the past.  But this time I put white on dark.  

And I knitted a hat to go with it.

Swallowtail Lace Shawl

I love knitting lace.  And I love knitting shawls.  I just don't wear them.  What's great is that I've sold a few of them in the past.  So I keep knitting them.  I don't know how many women really knit shawls. But I'll have a few if someone wants one.

This is a pattern called Swallowtail Lace Shawl.  I used a knitpicks yarn called Diadem fingering.  It is very soft to the touch.

I like that the pattern doesn't have any solid stockinette.  You have to think the whole time your're knitting.

I did put it away for a while as I was busy knitting for the grandchildren, but it was satisfying to finish it.
