bib for a new friend

alyssabib21.jpgalyssa-bib1.jpgI have made a bib for my new charge. Her name is Alyssa and she is 6 months old and a right lovely girl. I had been wanting to make it for a long time but finally have been having a burst of FO’s.

the patern is from ONE SKEIN  and it was the Petal Bib patern. It was a great quick knit and i plan on making her a few more. I love the short rows. love to do those. The one think i think i will do different is the pattern calls for sport weight and i will use worsted next time. It will make a more sturdy bib. the sport weight is just a little lacy fancy and a bib needs to have umph!

i can not tell you what the yarn is . I knwo i purchased it a michales and it is mercerized cotton. maybe pattons? the lable is long gone.  any way it is sure cute.

Wizard Knits anyone?
