Bee Mine

I can't get over how cute this set is! Knit with my Chickadee Overalls pattern. I striped yellow and black cestari (the yellow was dyed by me). On the chest panel I embroidered two flying bees. The hat has little antennas and I'm working on some matching black leg warmers that will have little bees embroidered on them too.

Chickadee Overalls

Here is another pattern I have been asked about over and over again and so I finally decided to write up the instructions.
These overalls are knit in a top-down fashion, starting with the chest panel/bib, when the panel is finished additional stitches are cast on for the body of the overalls.
The pattern features back straps, buttonholes, a pocket option, and a gathered area in the back.
Perfect for all times of year, just change the inseam and you can go from shorts to long pants.

The body features ample short rows to accommodate diaper bulk.

A wide range of sizes from newborn to 2T makes this a versatile and great fitting pattern.

Rainbow Overalls


I did a super fun trade with a customer. She sent me a box full of really nice kid clothes and I knit a pair of overalls for her!

Baby Chick Overalls

I absolutely love how these turned out. Unfortunately this is a one of a kind colorway and my attempt at reproducing it tonight was a big failure. What I like is the combination of different shades of green and blues and then the contrasting golden orange. It makes the colors pop.

The plain yellow buttons were made by me. I find it quick and easy to make some polymer buttons to go with anything I'm knitting. They really make the outfit.
The big button on the pocket is made by Tessa Ann. I love her work, I think it really pulls everything together.

Baby Overalls

I had several skeins of the spring delight colorway that I was planning on selling. But I loved the color combination so much I decided to knit something up. The overalls are pretty basic. Just shorties with a front panel and back straps added.
I used purple trim to bring out that particular color. Well everyone I talked to said that they overalls are way too girly and I can't dress Reid in them. I don't particularly care about gender type stuff, but I don't want to keep getting hassled about it.


And this is the official photo
The overalls are adorned with hand made polymer clay buttons.
