What a fun project this was! Super fast too, I want to guess that my total time was about 1 hour for each bootie and 2-3 for the hat. The pattern is from a book called "Natural knits for babies and moms" but I added my own little touch to it. I made the sole be a different color than the rest of the bootie, i made the picot edge on the hat a different color from the rest of the hat and the little flower at the top was my thing too. I made it out of a chain of 5 bobbles. I used Debbie Bliss alpaca silk which is a blend of 80% baby alpaca and 20% silk, OMG the softest most delicious yarn...perfect for baby! I have enough left over to make one more set....this one is going to be a gift for my cousin Paola's baby shower...hope she likes it!
