The well-dressed baby

My fingers have been busy lately. As soon as the swelling went down in my hands, I resumed some of the knitting projects I had been working on.

This pair of knit pants was adapted from Stitch 'n Bitch Nation. I omitted the little devil tail that is supposed to be attached in the back. The pattern was actually sized for a 3-month-old and for finer yarn, so I had to adjust accordingly. Hopefully they'll fit. They'll likely be worn on one of those few occassions where we have company or else I have to leave the house w/ kid in tow. The rest of the time I'm pretty certain he'll be wearing drool-stained pajamas.

The cost of constructing these pants, which The Kid will only be able to wear for a couple of months, was about $7.50. Much cheaper than comparable quality store-bought youngun' clothes, but still pricey by cheapskate standards.
