A Year of Baby Knitting

After being inspired by Mandy's hand knit hat and mitten collection over at Zig Zag Stitch, I decided I would round up Elise's knit wardrobe from this past year and put it all together.  Now before you look at my picture- did you look at Mandy's?  Pretty cool to see all those beautiful knits together, huh?

Ok, without further ado, I give you Elise's collection:

And now, for what's included:

Hats: 12
Pullover sweaters: 2
Cardigans/Jackets:  10
Shrugs: 1
Dresses: 3
Blankets: 1
Legwarmers: 1 pair
Mittens:  1 pair (and then a few sample loners that she's been wearing since we can't find one mitten of her pair)
Diaper Covers: 1
Socks/Booties: 3 pairs
Felted Bag: 1
Teddy Bear: 1
Balls: 3

Just for the record, not all of these were knit by me.  Here's the gifts:
Felted Bag- from Charlene
Bunny Hat, White Ear flap Hat, and Balls- from Melissa
Green Hat- from Tara
Playful Stripes Cardigan: from Jill
Dedication outfit (crocheted dress, blanket, bonnet, and booties):  My Mother in Law
2 Hats- from the hospital when she was born

It's quite an extensive list.  Let's just say it, this girl is spoiled.  Sadly, her future siblings will probably never get as many hand knits as her (no counting hand-me-downs), poor kids (can you tell I'm not a first born?).

Now the real question boggling my mind is the following: how did this happen?!

ps- for those of you wondering, I still have not decided on a stocking.  I am loving the idea of incorporating the motif from last year's dress, I guess we'll see what I come up with!
