‘By baby bunting…
…Daddy’s gone a-hunting, to get a little rabbit skin to wrap the baby bunting in.’
Okay, so it’s not a rabbit skin, but I think there’s a good portion of alpaca…
I’m not sure if Baby Tabb has a name yet, but I was thinking that he needs booties to go with his little hat. We began with this…
Stubby. Shapeless.
And with a little warm water and wool wash, we got this…
Felted baby booties still in need of ribbon in the eyelets, which you can’t see but are there, trust me. Booties which are the cutest kind of bunting to wrap baby’s feet in.
Project: Baby Booties
Book: Felted Knits by Beverly Galeskas
Yarn: Stash yarn wool/alpaca blend in heathered green and deep wine
