I have hilarious images of trying to shove a baby into the cocoon.

MademoiselleG · 22/05/2014 18:57

Omg Retro, I'd pay good money for one of these!

Just contemplated buying yarn to start a blanket...then went and bought cake instead.

PolytheneGirl · 22/05/2014 18:58

It could be quire funny Fancy.

Do you think they are knitted or crocheted?

LOVE the hungry caterpillar!
So I obviously googled cute crocheted things for baby and am obsessed. I think this is a close call with the caterpillar.
Now all I need is to find it on eBay and then I can have more cake! Actually, I really really want lentil and bacon soup. Something very savoury!

I so need to finish knitting my wooly hat from before xmas before I start the next project.

PolytheneGirl · 22/05/2014 20:46

I always thought I'd really like knitting and the likes but my eyes are so shite these days! I'll have to encourage my DM to pick up her needles I think it's been decades!

The dragon one is brilliant!! Grin

RetroHippy · 22/05/2014 22:17

Hmm, I think they're all crochet. I don't understand crochet Confused

I started knitting a blanket for a friends first. She was born I August. It still measures 1m x 45cm. I might tell her it's a scarf...

PolytheneGirl · 22/05/2014 22:22

Lol Retro!

I've just seen yet another preggie announcement on FB. I remember how upset they made me feel when we were ttc. I'm pretty certain I'll be avoiding the whole big public announcement thing. Just announcing to family and telling a few friends and letting it filter out that way.

fancyacupoftea · 22/05/2014 22:23

I only got into knitting because I tried crochet and didn't understand what on earth was going on

RetroHippy · 22/05/2014 22:29

Said friend sent a private message of the scan pic to a few close friends, then never mentioned it on fb till she was born. Still very few pics. Classy lady.

RetroHippy · 22/05/2014 22:29

Crochet is witchcraft with wool.

EnglishGirlsReturned · 23/05/2014 06:53

I'm definitely not doing the big fb announcement! I'll tell all close friends and family and try to think of a fun way for them but that's it. I get so irritated by Facebook. I have one pregnant friend who updates her status with every twinge! Annoying!!

Tilly28 · 23/05/2014 07:07

Ergh! Off for a blood test, was suspected slap cheek at school (now confirmed it probably isn't) but midwife reckoned if I already had paperwork for blood test I should still go as with being a teacher it was likely this could happen again! Delightful! :-/

EnglishGirlsReturned · 23/05/2014 07:52

What the hell is Slap cheek Tilly?! Never heard of it! Good luck for the test though. I hate blood tests, always make me go a bit wobbly!!

MademoiselleG · 23/05/2014 09:17

Eek good luck Tilly!

The ladybug and bumblebee bums are my faves. With the pea pod. OH I love them all!

Is crochet really that hard? Damn - I was hoping to make some cute crochet toys (called 'amigurumi' I think) for DD and #2...! They always make it look so easy on Pinterest. Amigurumi

MademoiselleG · 23/05/2014 09:18

(and yes Poly, of course DM will be -and already is- a grandma...she just really doesn't see herself as one! hilarious.)
