For Iris's first Halloween I dressed her up as Lambie, her lamb blankie that is also her best friend. She clutches and carries him around all day (see top two photos). It's very dear. I designed the hat pattern myself, using Blue Sky Alpacas Brushed Suri. (If anyone's interested please let me know, and I'll post the pattern here.) For the blanket part of the costume I used Simplicity pattern 1734. Such a cute pattern for a baby poncho! I think she'll wear it often as a coat this fall, not just for Halloween. I lined it with a beautiful Nani Iro double gauze. Underneath the poncho I dressed her in a wool onesie and leggings from H&M. Baby long johns! The shoes are baby Padraigs.

Jenny, these photos are precious! Iris has such bright eyes, like her mama. You did a beautiful job with her poncho--she looks very proud. Eloise had the same moccasins when she was Iris's age and I loved them. Happy autumn!

It is so so cute! Please post the hat pattern, I would love to make for one of my babies!
Beautiful, beautiful.
What a darling idea, Jenny - and so simple and practical, too; all the pieces are functional and reusable as part of a winter wardrobe. So clever! (And so adorable, on your little Iris!)
Iris is too cute. My little one also has a lambie which she carries everywhere, would love the pattern.
I too would love to see the lamb hat pattern. She is too precious. They grow so fast!
