A Cradle Purse
Here is the free pattern. I think she will love it because she's always wanting to take a baby along!

Finished the Baby crochet projects...
Every baby needs some UGG boots!
I changed to an F hook to try to make them smaller. Then they were still huge so I changed it to ch 12. And I didn’t like the toe so I did a tighter Sc instead of hdc decrease from row 8 -11.
A bomber hat in memory of Grandaddy
The hat and boots are from a book called Candy Crochet by Candi Jensen. You might try your library if you want to try it.
The star blanket is finished.
True to colors...
Next Christmas Gift...
A Jane Austen Muffler...
Almost done with the base. It's a lovely bamboo blend yarn. Very soft.
Updated:
After 5 days of not crocheting a stitch it is done. Just needs the buttons which I can't align right until she tries it on. (It's not really messed up in the middle. Don't know why it's laying that way!)
This is not a free pattern. It's from Interweave crochet Fall 2008 issue. On newstands now. (Have even seen it at walmart)

Isn't it cute...
NO I did NOT make this. I found it thrifting... I had to get it, all I could think about was the hours someone put into it... December will tell if I can use it or not...

Made a Baby Carrier Pouch
Always thought these looked cool and finally got around to making my own.
I saw the pouch for the first time flat on http://www.adventuresinbabywearing.com/. Her video on how to wear a newborn in a pouch. And I had bought the pattern # 3712 Simplicity. Unfortunately I hadn't read the pattern well and it said I needed 60" wide. I had bought 45". (that pattern is for an adjustable pouch) But when I was looking at the main piece of the pattern it looked like Steph's. So I ended up going ahead and trying it for an unadjustable pouch. I did cut the length about 2 inches longer. I did french seams for extra strong seams.
So anyway here's my pouch. Now I have to decide if I want to make the pouch adjustable like the pattern said.
NOTE: This ended up being my favorite baby carrier ever for newborn to 1 year.

Another version of baby it's cold outside...

I lined the hat with purple flannel. (The background flannel)
