FO: More Baby sweaters

I have been busy the last few days (makes a change, looking at this blog!), and knitted some baby sweaters. I love doing those because they are so quick and gratifying to do. I have been looking at patterns and was keen to try out the Baby Yoda sweater, a wrapped sweater which should be very simple to put on (no pulling over baby's head!)
The pattern for this sweater can be found here. I made mine in a cotton yarn that I got very cheap from a grocery store. 300g for £3.99 or something. Since the Yoda sweater only took half that yarn, I decided to use the rest for a second sweater.

I made a version of Knitty's Daisy Baby with a few modifications as follows:

• knitted the edge in garter stich rather than seed stitch
• omitted the button holes and instead added crocheted closers which I tried to give an 'oriental' (or military) feel

I think it's super cute! (Click the detail image to see the full sized picture)
Now for the question of who to gift these items to.....

Finally, a modelled version of the Apple sweater I designed and made for my friend's baby. In this picture, Tomas is 3 months old - so I guess i made the 3-6mth size (I can't actually remember!).
Very cute baby - with this lack of hair he even looks like his daddy! :D
