I have already made a hat.  I will probably make more and hopefully some booties if I find and patterns I like.  Any suggestions socalimommy?  A friend of mine makes all her babies socks and I am interested in that.  I would really love to make clothes and my own diapers but I don't have a sewing machine.

I'm going to the store right now to get some yarn (like I don't have enough!!) for these:

This baby is going to be set on the knitted stuff. I'm going to go crazy. I'm also planning some cardigans, a blanket, a sleepy bad thingy, rattles/ toys, and (of course) diaper covers.

Hey, maybe down the line we can do a DDC baby craft swap!

 Tank~ I made these slippers for the baby i ended up loosing Magic Slippers

 I'm thinking of trying these this time  Garter Stripe Booties

TalkToMeNow~ That would be a fun idea to do a swap.

I want to sew as much as I can for this baby! Which will be a challenge because I want to try to stay on team green. I figure i'll just sew for both genders and sell, trade, or hoard half of it. I actually started sewing in the 2ww! I made 3 (all girly) of the jamie jumpers from the little one layette pattern on fishsticks designs hyena cart store. They turned out SO stinking cute!! I need to make like a thousand more. Going to make a blanket too, but I might wait till after the birth because those take a lot of fabric and it's not cheap!

 I'm casting on for Owl Sleep Sack  today and after i get that done gonna cast on for Owl hat to match 

[TalkToMeNow]

I knitted most of the hat last night and it is way too big. :( Oh well, it will be a toddler hat and I'll adjust the pattern and knit another!  

[SoCaliMommy]

 Oh no about the hat being  too big.

 I also plan on making this  blanket but in blanket size Acorn Blanket

[SoCaliMommy]

Amanda~ That hat is so cute. love the colors.

[saoirse2007]

talk to me now...I covet your hat

[Ajbaby]

I am making cloth diapers. I don't even remember how many I have, its something like 6 newborn fleece soakers, a few newborns, and a couple one size. I'm teaching myself how to knit too, but I don't know how long it will take me to be able to make something.

[MadHghtsMama]

Im the least craftiest mama on earth, but Im admiring all these cute things you all are making.

[SoCaliMommy]

 I messed up on the owl cable and ended up having to frog it totally and start over. I decided to just use that patter but without the owls on it. I'm thinking to use the same hat  pattern and instead of the owls i will make the hat look like a acorn :)

[crazykittymomma]

So far I have these two planned, but once I know if it's a boy or girl I'll have more projects for clothing. :) I'm also going to make a new ring sling.
