A Pile of Baby Knits

I have finally finished all of the knits I'd planned for my friend's baby, who is due in just a couple short weeks! I need to get these all bundled up and dropped at the post office soon—hopefully the weather cooperates so I can get downtown!

First we have the Duck Feet booties, which I've already showed you (Ravelry Project Page). These are so cute, I cannot get over them, and I'm looking forward to seeing them on my friend's baby.

Next I knit up a Snug As A Bug Sleep Sack, which I haven't shared here. I love a sleep sack, and this one was a mindless knit. I love this green color so much! (Ravelry Project Page)

 

Then was a pair of Elizabeth Zimmermann's Baby Leggings, which I also showed you before. These were also a fun knit, although that i-cord drawstring seemed to take forever! (Ravelry Project Page)

I started a Newborn Vertebrae shortly before my first carpal tunnel surgery and finished it up in mid-January. This is such a great pattern, and I'm honestly surprised I haven't knit one before now. (Ravelry Project Page)

Finally is a pair of Pip Socks by my friend Annika. This was actually one of the first patterns I picked out. I used leftovers from my mum's xmas socks, and these are just so darling. The drawstring is supposed to be i-cord, but even months after finishing the Baby Leggings I'm still i-corded out, so I elected to make braids for drawstrings. (Ravelry Project Page)

I'm still working on the baby's quilt, which I'm hoping to finish this spring and not drag out for months and months yet. I haven't been sticking to the schedule I originally set myself, which in hindsight was a bit too ambitious, but I'm ultimately pleased with the progress so far and I'm utterly charmed with how it's stitching up.
