Another Pocket Tee... Scooters!!

I adore this little euro knit! I have a special place in my heart for scooters. My dad bought my brother and I a pair when we were younger. We rode them all through the woods at my grandparents home during the summer. Lots of fun times!!

Tristan's bedding was the Mona Luna scooter fabric. I adored it! Sad day when I took the bumper pads off and made it into a toddler bed.

Paired the scooter fabric with a stripe and star print. I love mixing it up! Hoping my little guy will love this one just as much as I do!

I made some pocket hoodies last week. Tristan was kind enough to model one for me after bath time the other night. I love this style! Sadly Tristan doesn't care for Ewoks much, but I thought it was pretty cute!

This hoodie has the kangaroo pocket at the bottom. It was a lot of fun to design. I used 3 panels, 2 on the hoodie and 1 for the pocket peekers! Love characters peeking out of the pockets. This fabric was really nice to work with. Great weight. You can find it over at the Fabric Geeks! They still have panels and fabrics in stock!

Easter 2012! My Little Guy!

Well I procrastinated again! Don't know why I always do that.

Started some shorties using the kumfy kozies longies pattern late Friday night. Finished the last leg this morning. Cut out a tee to match Saturday night, finished it this morning. 2 hours to spare before company arrived! And I managed to have the house clean and cooking too, well thanks to my hubby and kids pitching in!

Here are a few pics of my little guy. I used Retro Baby's Kiari colorway on licorice twist. First time knitting with LT and I really liked it a bunch. Great for summer I think.

I asked my 8 yr old what should be on Tristan's tee and he said easter eggs. So I drew some easter eggs with a chocolate bunny peeking out from behind them.


Next year maybe I will plan ahead. I hope you all had a great Easter and spent time with your loved ones. We had about 18 family members here today and a nice time was had by all.

Japanese Super Hero Raglan

Today's project was an easy one. I decided to sew up a matching raglan for the superhero beanie that I showed earlier this week. I traced the #1 papana raglan from the ottobre issue 4/2010 to see how I liked it. Super easy to sew up and all the seams matched up perfectly the first go around. Great pattern.

I'm not sure about the fit yet, little man decided he would nap for me today! Yeah! I think it will be great though based on Tristan's measurements. Going to change him after his nap and let him wear it when we pick his bubby up from school today.

ETA: I added some pictures after the tee was on little man. Great fit. Not a lot of room to grow though.

I think I will stay with the HTF Japanese fabric theme for now and go pull another fabric from the shelves. I'm thinking VW vans this go around!

I hope you are having a fabulous Thursday!
