Crocheting Baby Gifts

Do you remember the Germany magazine Landlust I've told you about before? Well, this last issue had some great baby crocheting projects, which coincided with a couple of gifts I had to make for two sweet babies recently born.
And after I was done with the gifts, I just kept going crocheting booties and rattles because they are so much fun to make.
So, some of these I am mailing out on Monday. The others I was going to sell in my Etsy shop, but my blogging friend from The Wug's Backyard BlogSpot made me aware of all the new laws and regulations regarding selling baby items and it's just not worth the giant hassle for these few things. (And if you want me to make one of these for you, just e-mail me directly.)

Thank you all so much for your recent comments on my posts. I haven't had much time to visit your blogs and I so appreciate that you still come visit mine!! I'll be catching up with you in the next couple of days!

P.S. For my German speaking friends, you can find the instructions for these little pretties and other fun projects on the Landlust website by clicking here.

P.P.S. Our Mexican feast on Friday was delicious and I'll share a couple of recipes with you soon...

  2. Ich habe sie schon in der Landlust bewundert. Ganz zauberhaft die Baby-Schühchen und Rasseln. Sind dir gut gelungen.
    Liebe Grüße

  8. I just love the baby rattles!!! You did such a nice job with them too!!! I'd love to make baby things for my shop again too, but between copyright laws for patterns and the regulatory CPSIA laws, I got scared off!!!LOL Glad you don't have those concerns because they're great!

  12. Hallo Silke, wunderschöne Sachen. Ich bin auch ein "Landlust" Fan und freue mich immer auf die neue Ausgabe. In einem deiner früheren Posts habe ich gelesen, dass du früher in der Nähe von Heidelberg gewohnt hast. Wo denn da? Ich wohne auch in der Nähe...Ganz liebe Sommergrüße aus der alten Heimat:-) Inge
