Ladybird Newborn Cardi UPDATED 15/07/18 Hat + booties

Post by poppy »

One of my colleague announced that she was expecting a baby in November. I could not resist taking my knitting needles out for the first time in about 2 years. As I do not know the baby's gender, I decided on the Ladybird theme.
Thanks for looking :D

Just finished knitting the booties and the little hat to go with the cardigan. My colleague's baby will be born in the UK in November. He/She will need some warm clothes. Hope you like it. :D
