Knits & Gifts for Little Ones
We’re spoilt for choice when it comes to babies these days at Loop – there are so many adorable patterns and other bits and bobs perfect for the wee ones in our lives! From sweet cardis to dapper pullovers, precious toys to darling buttons, there’s so much to indulge both new parents and little people alike. Take for instance our very own Mignon pattern, pictured above. Knit in less than 100 g of DK weight yarn it’s the perfect pattern for a special hand-dyed (and machine washable!) skein like The Uncommon Thread BFL Sport/DK or a lovely Cashmere Merino Silk baby yarn like Sublime. Below it’s pictured in Quince & Co Chickadee for a rather sophisticated take on the baby cardigan!
New this week at Loop is the oh-so-lovely Lullaby Knits by one of our favourite designers, Vibe Ulrik Sondergaard. It is full of delicate, modern and elegant knits for infants to two-year-olds.
How adorable are these little garments (not to mention the tiny models!)?
And just yesterday, this sweet little book arrived from Debbie Bliss
Plus there are patterns for older kids too!
New baby patterns also include a blanket from Heirloom Stitches, Textured Baby Suite by Versaci Knits, and we’re expecting this gem from The Fibre Co very soon! (Call or email us if you want to be notified when it arrives.)
We couldn’t resist also showing you some of our delightful button collection – what better way to finish off an heirloom baby cardigan?
And if you’re still after a handmade gift, but are short on time to make your own, we have truly stunning kantha baby quilts and very cuddly crocheted toys.
These little lions are ready and waiting to be a baby’s best friend – they even gently rattle!
Happy knitting!
The book Lullaby Knits – could you tell me if the patterns are written in the round or all worked flat? Thank you. :)
They are mostly worked flat with the occasional neckband, etc. worked in the round :)
Please let me know when the baby collection book arrives from Kelbourne Woolens.
I have made Mignon three times now, lovely pattern, but please ask designer to add larger sizes for toddlers please.
