This is BICO #6. I made this one out of Homespun and Simply Soft for the trim and the hat. It still doesn't have any buttons on it yet; I have to go buy some since I didn't have any in my sewing box that would go with it... The hat pattern is the same one I used for a couple of other BICO sets (out of the Family Circle Easy Crochet magazine). I did make (one) mitten, but I could tell it was waaaay too small. So I might just send the sweater and hat. It's going to the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation. Even though I am no longer in the yahoo group Crafting for a Cause, I still write back and forth with someone who lives there. She just wrote me and told me she has a new grandson so I made this set for him. It's a size six months so hopefully it will fit in a month or so... (he's three months old). I am also working on a preemie hat. I accidentally did one already (trying to make a hat to go with this sweater, actually.) I am sending it to someone who works in a neonatal nursery. I should make a bunch since I haven't sent any to the Preemie Protectors group in a while, either.... Oh well. They do go pretty quick.Sunday, January 28, 2007
Uh Oh... Not Another One... (BICO) ;p

You seem to have mastered the BICO sweater ;) All your baby items are cute, Tina...I love the pink booties!
Hi Mimi. I think I have the BICO down pretty good. Now all I have to do is venture out into making bigger sizes and pullovers like everyone else is.... Thanks on the booties. I have had them done forever but finally sewed in all the loose ends...
I mailed the hat/booties and the pink booties out today. (She's going into the hospital tomorrow!) :0
