Itty Bitty Nursery

I got the Itty Bitty Nursery book for Christmas so what is a Grandma to do but pick a project and knit?

I couldn't resist these two adorable pacifier holders.





For my facebook friends, here are the Elephant ears I spoke of.






And the cutest of flowers. For the curious, the front of the flower and elephant trunk holds onto a clip which attaches to baby's clothes and the back attaches to the pacifier. No more falling on the floor.

The flower petals were a very clever bit of tubular knitting that I had never done before. Nice to have some learning in the process, and pick up a crochet hook as well.

I am unfortunately not yet recovered from a winter cold so I'm going to spend a 7th day in rest mode hoping to feel better soon. The studio is waiting!

  2. love the little binky holders. My stomach just turns when I watch moms pick those up off the floor and just stick them back in those little mouths. Yuck!
