Finished Object: Baby’s First Tattoo

Knitting: Baby's First Tattoo (Closeup)

After some trouble with unclear directions in regards to the Raglan shaping, I have successfully completed my version of Baby’s First Tattoo from SnBN. I opted not to do the “tattoos” as I didn’t really like the suggested options and I subsituted the invisible snaps for two buttons with crochet loops.

This’ll be packaged up and sent to New Zealand for the newest member of my large family. I’m already trying to think who else I know that could use one as it really was so easy to complete and looks so good. I’m particularly pleased because this is the first item that I’ve had to actually sew up – everything else has been knitted in one piece or in the round.

Now that I’m down a WIP, I’m working on my prototype/pattern for a knitted Puddlejumper (from Stargate Atlantis) and my mouse “accidentally” slipped this morning – I purchased the yarn needed for the camisole in this month’s Simply Knitting. Oops! Five skeins of Elle Cotton Fields in Pepper should be winging its way to me shortly. :rubs hands:
