Review

"A very nice alternative to some of the more complicated baby garment patterns currently out there."  —Spindlicity.com


"In addition to the usual baby hats, booties, mittens, and sweaters, there are some nice designs for Mom too."  —MonstersandCritics.com


"Lovely and imaginative...The beautiful patterns for baby are the real heart of this fabulous book."  —Anchorage Daily News


"Practical knits for nursing moms and exquisite little hats, booties, and mittens."  —Get Creative


"Simple-yet-adorable baby designs with detail that only an actual knitting mother would think of."  —Knitty.com


"This book will leave you revved to unleash those maternal instincts in a knitting frenzy."  —Vogue Knitting

"Designed so cute-with-a-capital-C doesn't overshadow the little one's inherent beauty."  —Yarn Market News

Product Description

This inspired collection of patterns for mother and baby includes designs with a simple flare and an elegant, modern feel for use with organically grown, undyed yarns. The projects are designed for beginning to average knitters so that essential baby accessories such as booties, mittens, hats, and simple knitted toys are quickly completed and instantly cherished. A cot blanket is an example of a group project designed to be made in one evening, and slightly more ambitious designs include an adorable dress, a chunky jacket, or a kimono sweater for a baby and wonderful, cozy items for mothers such as an unusual "bump" sweater for pregnant women, nursing sweaters that are convenient and stylish, and herb-scented pillows that delight the eye and soothe the spirit.

4.0 out of 5 stars Basic with a little twist, September 11, 2006
I love that the designs are simple, but have little details that make them special like a picot edge or a simple cable. I have already made the hat and booties and loved them. Yarn is easily substituted. My only negative comment is that the patterns indicate to knit everything flat and then seam, including the hat and stuffed animals. Some things are better done in the round, but it is easily remedied by someone with a little knowledge of knitting in the round. I would think this would be an awesome book for a beginner.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best baby knitting pattern book I own!!, March 8, 2007
By R. K. Miske (Monument, co USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)    (VINE VOICE)   
I can't say enough good things about this book. I have made almost all of the patterns in this book, and I can't say that for most knitting books I own. The patterns have good pictures, clear instructions, and I have yet to find a mistake in the patterns. The designs are simple and classic, yet unique. And a bonus... many of the patterns call for Blue Sky Alpaca's Organic cotton, which is pretty affordable and not too hard to find (and probably my all-time fave cotton yarn). By far the best baby knitting book I've found.

5.0 out of 5 stars Just Buy It!!!, March 4, 2007
If you're even considering buying this book, just do it! It was given to me as a gift, and it is probably my favorite knitting book! The instructions in the back of the book are very good. It was the first time I'd seen a yarnover explained in a way that I could understand. The natural yarns are absolutely gorgeous, as are the colors and the photography. This is a stunning book on top of having cute patterns that are clear, easy to follow, beautiful, and satisfying to make. It's fabulous!
