Shrug for my granddaughter

[ATTACH=CONFIG]617436[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]617437[/ATTACH]This is the shrug that I made my new granddaughter from Sewbizgirl's recent post. It's called Muti Lynn and was fun to make. The buttons are Beatrix Potter that I bought quite awhile ago "for the future" !!! :)

Our precious Arden Leigh was born September 12. 7 lbs 9 oz.

Picture of her to follow!

Sorry they uploaded sideways!

The shrug, sweater is gorgeous! And your GD is absolutely perfect! Just the right size to wear such a beautiful sweater.

Congratulations on your Baby Granddaughter, Susie!!!!! She is adorable!! She has such a healthy pink color and sweet little cheeks! You must be the happiest grandma right now! :)

Your knitted shrug is perfect for this fall weather that is coming! I love the buttons!

​Sweet shrug and pictures!

Precious child and gift!

Iceblossom 09-16-2019 06:11 AM

Such a sweet project and love those buttons.

Grats on the grandbaby! I'm so awful I don't have pictures of mine posted. We did take some but the batteries were dying and the backups were low too.

tallchick 09-16-2019 06:13 AM

Omg I just love them both, so sweet and perfect! Congratulations!

Icebloosom, please post pictures of your grandbaby too! When did the baby arrive? We all love babies and their birth announcements!

Susie and I have been on the same grandbaby countdown -- Leon Mateo came into the world on September 10, a week or so late and after 35 hours of trying he finally arrived via c-section. Here is me and Leon :) with my son in the background. Mom has said all along it was going to be one and only and the labor did nothing to change her mind.

SusieQOH 09-16-2019 07:56 AM

Ohhhh he is gorgeous!!!!!!!!!!!!! So happy for you, Iceblossom!!!

Iceblossom 09-16-2019 08:07 AM

Same back at you! Isn't it a wonderful thing to be a grandma? I've been semi-patiently waiting for years and years!

On other forums and memes and stuff there is one that goes "How do you know if someone is a (whatever it is)" and the answer is -- don't worry, they'll tell you! I'm a grandma. Wheeeee!!!

Jordan 09-16-2019 08:17 AM

Beautiful sweater and absolutely gorgeous new grandbaby. Being a grandmother is the best job ever. Congratulations and enjoy every minute.

NZquilter 09-16-2019 09:02 AM

Beautiful baby boy, Iceblossom!! Sleeping babies always look so peaceful. Don't worry, I think most new moms say "never again!" right after delivery . :D In time she will forget how hard it was. Hopefully DIL is getting some rest and feeling better soon. Congratulations on being a new Grandma!!!

Doggramma 09-16-2019 01:19 PM

Oh my goodness, the cuteness! What a beautiful baby! The shrug is adorable.

anonymous 09-16-2019 01:32 PM

Wow, this forum produces some beautiful babies!!! Congratulations Susie and Iceblossom!!! I am so excited for both of you and I know you are going to have fun loving on those babies.

suern3 09-16-2019 02:23 PM

Congratulations Susie and Iceblossom ! Thank you both for sharing pictures of those beautiful babies! Our youngest grandson is almost 8 years old and the oldest just turned 24. Love them all dearly, of course, but I do miss those baby days. So sweet.

osewme 09-16-2019 05:12 PM

More congratulations here to Susie & Iceblossom. Those two babies are just the sweetest things ever! I'm so thrilled for both of you!!!

sewbizgirl 09-16-2019 05:38 PM

Oh my... two gorgeous new babies and one sweet shrug all in one thread! Both babies are so beautiful. Aren't we blessed?

Jingle 09-16-2019 06:57 PM

Susie your Granddaughter is gorgeous lying on that gorgeous quilt. Shrug is beautiful.

Jingle 09-16-2019 06:58 PM

Iceblossom your Grandson is very handsome.

Moira in N.E. England 09-16-2019 11:43 PM

What a pretty shrug!
Baby clothes are such fun to knit and the choice of yarns in stores today are lovely.

Congratulations on the birth of your granddaughter.

Your granddaughter is precious. Thanks for the wonderful photos. Your shrug is going to look so cute on her!

Please advise me on the Muti Lynn pattern. I would love to try this pattern. I can knit and purl and have done a lace stitch, but only have knit scarves and throws. This would be my first attempt at making a knit project that someone would wear. Where is the pattern available please. ...and thank you for sharing! :)

Rhonda K 09-17-2019 03:41 AM

Beautiful little babies and a pretty shrug for her. Congrats!

copycat- the pattern is on the Love's Crafts website and it's called Muti Lynn. It offers a variety of sizes. I made it larger because they grow out of newborn so fast. Let me know if you can't find it but I think you will. And thank you for the comments!
Oh- I goofed up the bodice at first. Once I got the hang of it everything went well.
Thanks, everyone! We're too happy for words!

Beautiful shrug for a beautiful grand daughter! Congratulations!

I can get them right side up by right clicking on the picture. A box comes up with "Open image in new tab." Left click on that and a new tab appears at the top of the screen. Left click on that tab, and the picture comes up right side up. Most of the time! I feel so much better when I can look at pictures right side up.

zozee 09-17-2019 06:36 AM

Susie and Iceblossom, oh my goodness! I am so happy for you both! Those babies are just beautiful and altogether loved beyond measure. There is absolutely nothing like being a grandmother.

Now you've gone and made me miss my grandlambs all over again! We find out what the next one is at a gender reveal party Oct 11. (My husband said to me,"A gender reveal party? What gender are you going as?" Such a goofball.

Again, congratulations to you both. I know your hearts are exploding with love and joy!

zozee 09-17-2019 06:39 AM

PS Susie, the shrug is really pretty and oh-so-tiny. I meant to say so in my previous comment, but was a bit distracted by the wee human beauties!

Minnesewta-sam 09-17-2019 07:21 AM

Beautiful work on everyone's part! What a little darling!

RuthiesRetreat3 09-18-2019 09:18 AM

She's precious! Very alert already! Congrats grammy.

1screech 09-19-2019 12:41 PM

Awww so sweet!

wesing 09-19-2019 05:36 PM

Susie she is beautiful! Love all that hair! Congrats to the whole family.

Iceblossom your GS is adorable also! Congrats to your family.

I sure miss the baby days, but I'm hoping to live long enough to see and spoil my grandkids.

busy fingers 09-19-2019 06:09 PM

Gorgeous and so is the shrug.

Rose_P 09-19-2019 06:49 PM

Congratulations to both SuzieQOH and Iceblossom! Two precious new ones! The little sweater is great, too, Suzie. You are multitalented.

Boston1954 09-26-2019 07:34 AM

Priceless!!
Okay, where is the picture of her being held by Grandma!? I want to see the extra proud look on your face. :)

Also your little sweater is priceless. The kitty buttons just make it.
