In just about two weeks my daughter's friend Helen is having a baby. This is Helen's second child. She has an 8½ year old son. Brittainy and Helen have been friends since kindergarten when we lived across the street from them. Helen has hosted both of Britt's baby showers and two weeks ago Britt had a shower for Helen. I made this little sweater and hat for the baby. It is a soft pink with speckles of color. The picture is a bit washed out...sorry about that. There are lots of pregnant teachers at my school. One of the teacher's had her baby a bit early. I bought enough yarn to make the same sweater and hat for her baby.
For more pink posts be sure to visit Beverly.
take care,
Dawn

Just beautiful Dawn! I envy you being able to knit--there's just no end to the pretty things you can make!
It is definitely a good thing that the seat of my chair is so close to the floor. ;-) You know I adore you.
Now Ms. Dawn, I adore that sweater and hat, too. My gosh! It is gorgeous. Why didn't I know you when I had a baby? Maybe I need to buy a baby doll.
Those who know your daughter are fortunate indeed. You do such nice work. I hope you've been enjoying your time off. Thanks for sharing. Happy Pink Saturday!
They will be thrilled with their gift. So pretty. Happy Pink Saturday. Nancy

I am heading to a baby shower today with my daughter. I LOVE the sweater and you made it? WOWZERS! Awesome! I have a little pink something on my blog that I made for the shower today too but not like that! Happy pink.
Hi Dawn,
It's nice to see you posting again for Pink Saturday!
What a beautiful gift for a new mom. I bet the baby will look adorable! Maybe she will take a picture for you of the baby dressed in it to post!

Hello Dawn, I bet you thought I left town. I have been busy (you won't believe this)getting ready for twenty dinner guests tomorrow. My cousin and her dh are coming to visit from MI and we are having a sort of mini reunion. She lives waaaay up in Northern MI and never gets down here. She is sleeping at my sister's house in back of me but the dinner is here at my request. I know, I must be crazy but my house is set up for a large crowd the best. I am not cooking, well a pie and that's easy. I have the tables all set and that was the hardest part. I can only do so much and then rest. LOL.
Your pink did surprise me today and I adore the sweater and hat. Anyone who is a friend of yours is so lucky Dawn. You are so sweet to be so generous with your wonderful knitting ability. I think the specs of color look so pretty. What a lucky baby girl.
Have a wonderful Sunday.
Hugs...Jeanne
Beautiful sweater...and you made it! wow
Happy Pink Saturday
Susan
Cute as can be! How lucky you are to be able to knit. Someday I hope to learn.
Happy Pink Saturday!

So beautiful! What a lucky little babe! Man, I wish I could knit like you! I did finish up a scarf for Annie this month...but we're talking as basic as can be. One of these days maybe I'll break out of my comfort zone and try something other than a scarf. :)
Happy pink saturday a little late...love the sweater set...and the post of the letter from your son is just adorable...thanks for sharing it!
Hi Dawn,
sorry for the belated comment, but my laptop crashed this weekend so I'm trying to catch up for Pink Saturday.
That is such a sweet sweater and cap. So delicate and precious!
Deanna :D
