I have a not-so-secret, secret to tell you! I’m beyond thrilled to tell you all that Matthew and I will be welcoming a baby next February! Have you noticed I’ve been a little baby crazy lately? It’s no coincidence. I’ve even named our baby — yep, you can call it “Mini Stanley” for now.
My first baby purchase was yarn which turned into this little snowsuit for my snow bunny to-be! I’ve been knitting up a storm and ogling baby patterns on Ravelry. I have big plans for all the projects I’ll be making over the next 6 months.
Warning: You might get sick baby project after baby project that I’ll be posting here…but if you do, I will have to declare you insane, because they’re so-stinkin-cute you can’t help but love them and squeel “awwww”!
Just a few in my queue:
Pattern links - top to bottom, left to right
La brassière raglan
Baby Hunter Hat
Sweet Honey
Crocus Patch Baby Blanket
Baby Bunting Sweater
Hooded Cardigan
Baby Pea Pod
Epipa Baby Booties
Korrigan
Since you’re all a crafty bunch I thought you might enjoy this. My friend Aly sent this to me soon after I shared my news with her. Aly is pregnant too, due 6 weeks before me and I’m so grateful to have someone close to share this experience with!
Congrats, kara! We are due in January! (And I am working on http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/mossy-jacket :)

I am so glad this post finally made its debut! :) Congrats, Kara! The snowsuit is adorable. You are going to be an amazing mother.
Congrats to the new family, very sweet patterns too!
Congratulations!! I’m looking forward to seeing your baby knits so I can copy!! I find Ravelry so confusing to find items to knit
That is so wonderful and I am happy for you! I have 5 kids of my own and never, never get tired of seeing baby knits! {even though we are years past that stage}
Congratulations!!
Congratulations! And agreed – baby clothes are so stinkin’ cute, post away!
Congratulations, the snow suit is adorable. Excited to see your creations for mini stanley!
Exciting times! I am anxious for this little one to arrive, to love it and maybe even get to babysit? Grandchildren are one of the best things to happen in my life and this little one makes 12! Happy Grandma!
Oooh! Congrats! Very cool! I’m 21 presently and also planning some baby knitting…although I am going to do a blanket first and go from there. We’re having a boy. Pregnant knitting is the best.
Sooo excited for Mini Stanley! And so happy for you and Matt. Can’t wait for the new little one to make its debut!
Can’t wait to meet my new little neice or nephew! The only gifts he/she will be getting from me with be store bought, knitting, sewing, etc would be like me makeing something for Martha Stewart!!!! :) Love you
