If I were knitting for Norah when she was still in utero, I would have chosen the immie tee and knit the 3-6 months size because after 6 months, they start eating solids and anything nicer gets wrecked. They start moving a lot so get super warm and really only wear onsies and sweatshirts that are easy washed (see previous reason!). And the larger the size, the further back in the closet it will be out and it'll be forgotten about and not worn when it finally fits. Enjoy the small, quick knit of a baby knit and chose a small size. Knit something for her 1yr birthday that is a 2T and she'll wear it for a year (from 12-30 months!) :) just my piece of opinion!!!! :) <3rachelnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4602550634089000587.post-63394140243301362322015-03-25T02:17:14.023-04:002015-03-25T02:17:14.023-04:00I knitted a newborn size of Camilla babe by Carrie...I knitted a newborn size of Camilla babe by Carrie Bostwick Hoge and it came up so big. Her patterns look great in real life. Best thing my now 9 year old got as a bsby was a white (accrylic!) cardigan from his great grandmother, wore and washed ver and over.Victorianoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4602550634089000587.post-33170774222832961952015-03-24T14:39:22.006-04:002015-03-24T14:39:22.006-04:00I love the Sproutlette dress, I have had it on my ...I love the Sproutlette dress, I have had it on my to knit list for baby clothes for a while. I'd definitely choose a bigger size. Newborns grow so fast, it's almost not worth to knit something special for them. And even if the season isn't perfect for the dress, the baby can wear the dress with tights or leggins in any kind of weather.<br />I'll also knit a baby pattern by Tanis next, but since I don't know if it will be a boy or a girl, I'll knit an R&R Hoodie.Corinne Rofflernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4602550634089000587.post-68109089209678998882015-03-24T13:15:35.744-04:002015-03-24T13:15:35.744-04:00I definitely say knit something practical.

Size 3-6m. Booties don't stay on their feet. I also received 6 knitted bibs and we still use them even at 3 and 1 years old! =)Rebekah Wersler Hayesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4602550634089000587.post-75269491156340860802015-03-24T13:09:14.466-04:002015-03-24T13:09:14.466-04:00You also knitted this for me!

So, I vote for the dress if you're looking for longevity!www.tresbienensemble.comnoreply@blogger.com
