How easy is knitting baby clothes???
Im 17 weeks pg with my 3rd and its going to be a winter baby.
I love all the little hand knitted cardigans and stuff, does anyone know how hard it is to knit?
Also is it expensive for the needles/wool etc?
I have absolutely no idea where to start i just love all the sweet little clothes!! (“,)
Any help would be appreciated, especially if anyone has tried it and im better off buying the clothes!!!
Thanks everyone
i personally love knitting and knit all the time for friends family and my own kids. i started about a year ago and it took a little while to get the hang of it but when i finished it i was well pleased and it was def worth it. a good quality wool is the key, ‘sirdar snuggly’ is the best i have found and i love it. i find u can pick up loads of cheap baby wool from ebay in all different colours, and patterns can be tricky, but i have some very easy patterns that are fairly easy to follow, just using the two main stiches, u can also pick these up on ebay. a simple little cardi is def the best place to start. i recently tried knitting a hat and im V pleased with the results. i also think there is nothing better than a newborn in a hand knitted cardi.
hope this helps, and dont be detered not only grannys knit i am 26.
