The winner is Beverly.
Knitting for babies and toddlers is a lot of fun. The projects are usually pretty small and fast to knit, and kids universally look cute in a little knit something or wrapped up in a knit blanket.
Knitting for littles is a great way to get started knitting, or to get back into it after a break, too.
Vickie Howell’s latest, Wee Garter Stitch
, shows knitters fun ways to use Garter Stitch in projects for little ones to wear, use and love. The colors and style are modern even as the stitch patterns are classic, and this book is a lot of fun for people who do a lot of knitting for babies and toddlers.
This week I’m giving away a copy. If you want a chance at winning it, leave a comment on this post before the end of the day Sunday, June 5. I’d love to hear about the little one(s) you’re knitting for. My little one is six so she’s too big for these projects, but if she were still small there are definitely some here I would make for her.
Thanks for visiting, commenting and sharing, and good luck!

I have a young 4 yr old niece who was born with a heart health issue. She is facing probably another open heart surgery and she wants a pink blanket so I am knitting one for her birthday which is coming up soon. She wanted a blanket that was like what she has seen at my parents so that is where I got the idea.
I’ve got someone new to knit for 🙂 my youngest is three months old. Right now I’m working on a blankie for her, but I’d love to have some patterns for cute clothes.

I don’t have little ones of my own but I love crafting for my friends’ babies. Or sometimes just knitting for charity because I saw the cutest pattern.
I knit for several grandchildren of my friends. They range from months old to eight, so this book would be well used. Thank you for the giveaway chance.
I’ve been knitting since I was 8, I’ve always knitted for girls though as I have 3 nieces who also had girls, plus I then had 3 girls to knit for and now have a granddaughter who I love to garter stitch cardigans for as they knit so fast, I now have a grandson though, first time I’ve knitted boys clothes. I need new patterns now.
Synthetic store-bought sweaters are not warm enough so I always knit wool sweaters for the little ones.
