I have been busy making gifts for two friends who are having babies fairly soon. Both are having girls. One likes things pretty feminine so she’s getting the lavender and purple combo. The other wants gender neutral so I opted for a pale yellow with a rainbow variegated. It’s how I’m staying sane.

Two pullovers made for the 12-18 month range for babies. The bottom one is made with lavender chenille yarn and a purple variegated yarn that has dark purple to a medium kind of pinkish purple. Green buttons put on with dark red thread finish it off.
The second one is slightly small because different yarns using the same measurements will be a little different. This one I opted to use a lemon yellow baby yarn (it’s a specific type of yarn) and made the base 3 rows shorter just so I could add the rainbow variegated yarn to the bottom so it matches the top part. I decided to go with yellow buttons on this one just to make it pop and the baby yarn is fine enough that I used it to attach the buttonsI tend to make or give baby gifts for older babies because everyone usually go for newborn items forgetting that babies grow! Plus I am hoping when they are older, both children will see these things and know that they were made with love.
