How experienced a knitter are you? There are tons of baby items out there to be knit, you just have to find which one you like. YOu can knit anything from the typical sweater, hat booties to garments to wool soakers to go over cloth diapers to little mittens and brimmed hats. The list just goes on and on and on. What do you want to make?

Find a pattern and it will tell you the suggested needle size and yarn.

Are you looking for knitting or crochet patterns? There is a crochet forum here in KH, too.

Hi all

I have been knitting for quite a while say few mnths, and so far i have done hat, scarf, some quilts, pot holder(not knitting though), and currently doing sweater, going to finish it. Probably i will google as psquidy have said.
