New Grand-baby!

On Monday, February 8th, I became a grandmother again. Ilyanna was born at 1:36 pm. She weighed 7# 12 oz., and was 19 1/2" long. 

Here is the blanket, sweater and hat I made for her. I know it's hard to see, but the pieces are a pale pink.

Addition: I decided to make booties and mittens, too. :)

Preemie Baby Sweater & Hat

Greetings,

I have to show you what I just finished. This is a crocheted, preemie baby sweater and hat in a variegated pink yarn with sparkle. The width from underarm to underarm is 6". The hat at it's widest is 4 1/2". This was a new pattern for me, but similar to some I'd done before, so it took me an evening, plus a few hours to make both pieces. I'm planning to send this to friends who had a preemie girl named Ruth on April 14th. She was only 2# 12 oz. Now she's about 5# and will probably be going home soon.
