A new sweater and some new hats

I am home now but while I was in BC taking care of my little grandson, I had a chance to knit another sweater for him. The yarn is Bernat Jacquard in Blue Jean. I made one in brown (Jasper Jacquard) previously and wanted to see what the blue would look like.

It's a super easy pattern.

A bit longer than the original brown one and it fits the little guy. Since Luc has blue eyes, the sweater enhances them.

I have the green jacquard (Jade) yarn and plan on making another sweater - but in a different pattern.

 I also made this hat from a new pattern and used Luc's dad's old red t-shirt. As you can see, it is a tad too big. I didn't try it on him before I finished it.

The next one was out of recycled denim but Luc's mommy thought the crown was too high. Both of these still needed the velcro attached underneath the chin.

This one is again made out of an old t-shirt but it was fitted to his little head and finished with the velcro. The pattern is a combination of the two patterns that I have used to make hats. I think it turned out OK.

And here we are on my last day with him. Luc is wearing the little hat and the jacket that I made him. His auntie Ayla is now visiting him and probably spoiling him with affection.

I think I will concentrate on a bit of quilting for now.
I'll make a couple of little shirts when the mood hits. There's just so much fabric in my sewing room to use up.

I will be linking up with the Needle and Thread Network so go check them out and see what else has been happening in the creative Canadian world.
