Yo Yo Yoda

11 November 2008 | 2008 Finished Knits, baby kimono, baby knits, yoda
Yarn: Sirdar Baby Bamboo
Needles: 5mm
Start Date: August 26st 2008
Finish Date: September 12st 2008
Sirdar baby bamboo is now my favourite baby yarn. Its incredibly soft, great stitch defination and slides wonderfully along the needles, it comes in a variety of yummy colours that I can’t wait to knit with. Mum and Dad also brought me the Baby Bamboo Too pattern book back from their trip home during the summer, there are some lovely patterns in there that are just screaming to be knit.
This pattern for this was sized for 6mths but the little Yoda this was destined for was nearing that mark already so I added to the length and width of this sweater for more of a 1 year old size which will hopefully fit him well into next year.
Now what’s a yoda sweater without the matching felted yoda hat?

Pattern: Felted Yoda Hat by Sunshyne Leland

Yarn: Cascade 220 Heathers

Needles: 6.5mm

Start Date: September 25th 2008

Finish Date: September 26th 2008

Again this pattern went up to 6mths and I was afraid it wouldn’t fit when felted so I added to the number of stitches cast on as well as ear flaps and it actually turned out to be a bit too big, it should be wearable for quite a while.

As you can tell from the dates of these knits this post was a long time coming but I wanted to gift these knits before I posted about them.

Here’s Baby Yoda himself:

Talk about cute!

I’m almost caught up with my FO’s but i’ve had a bad case of startitis as of late and have lots more to show you!
