I had 2 partial skeins of Bernat Camouflage in Purple Camo. I used Bev's Baby Shirt pattern. I made it with a double strand and a K hook. It's a little larger which should be ok.
I also had 2 partial skeins of Patons Classic Wool Merino in Retro. I used a double strand and a J hook on this one. These will be nice and warm.
These shirts will be going to the VNS of NY. I know they don't want wool because it's scratchy on the baby skin. The Merino is soft and shouldn't pose a problem. It's just that with the wool it will have to be hand washed. I will send a note along with this shirt. The others were made with 100% acrylic.
Bev came out with a new pattern I want to try. Bev's Little Pea-Pod Cozy. I think it would be great with or without the hood. It is a knit pattern and I'm sure like everything else, she will come out with a crochet pattern for it.
Have a great week!
Until next time...

I am dying to make some baby things. They are next on my list of projects to start. You are really whetting my appetite with your sweet little goodies.
Again, beautiful work Bunny and the colors are to die for. Keep up the good work, those babies are going to be happy babies. :)

DARLING! I love that purple camo, I've not seen it in the stores, but it's very cool. I used Bernat Camo in Desert Sand to make a pair of mittens (just almost finished last night...need one more thumb), it is really nice soft yarn. I think actually to soft for the mitts, but bet it was fabulous in the sweater for a wee one.
Beautiful work as always...love your projects.
Hugs
Sandy
