Baby on the wayNot in this house though! 
OK, having reminded myself that I can knit, albeit not ever so well or neatly, I have just heard that a friend's daughter is expecting her first baby.
Am I brave enough to have a go at knitting something for Baby? Does anyone have a pattern for something Very simple please?

Yes, yes and double yes, anything for a new baby. I'll have a look tomorrow CP, E is out with her Mum so I'll have some free time.

I've found a nice book of patterns CP, it's got a variety of garments in it. What sort of knitter would you say you are, skill wise I mean. I would consider some of these patterns easy but you need to be able to do shaping.

Am here now Kathy, I'm at a very basic stage at the moment, its like starting from scratch really.
I can't believe that I knitted baby clothes 20 odd years ago really!!
But confident that with a bit of patience I can do it again
|
Kathy
|
Ok CP, PM your addy and I'll get something off to you.
|
Kathy
|
I didn't get a PM with your address yet CP.

The package arrived today thank you Kathy.
I must admit, there was a big pile of post to sort through when I got in from work, I saw yours and thought hmm, most intriguing (clearly wasn't a bill or junk mail!!). As I opened it the first thing I saw was "Hayfield make prettier babies".
For a split second I wondered if I had opened someone elses post
Thank you, I shall enjoy sitting down later and seeing if there is something in there that I feel competent enough to tackle!

Yes CP it was. I found the note that was supposed to be in the package this afternoon when I was tidying up.
Keep us updated on knitting progress.
