Brrrrrr. Baby it's getting cold outside...

But not for you! In my zeal to create a barrier between my fragile baby child and the harsh elements of winter here in Chicago, I have begun to make warm and cozy things. Things that will engulf the head, torso, entire body of my little bean.

I started with these here pants made from an angora sweater. The ribbed waist (made into the legs) and the tall ribbed turtle neck, made into the top, tall part of the pants. It's all Tallpants from here until April, people. For these pants from sweaters acrobatics, it's best that you have a serger, obviously. Maybe even neccessary. I don't know. I don't actually know anything about sewing yet.

See the cocooned little bundle here in her first ones:
