Grandsons and Sports...

[Mrs. P]

Hello Ladies...
I have two Grandsons who each just turned 2.
It's so much fun to crochet them sports clothes,
their parents are super big sports fans.
Last year for their 1st birthday I crocheted them
each a White Sox cardigan
and this year for their 2nd birthday
I crocheted them each a customized Chicago Blackhawks jersey!
I added their last names to the back along with their birthdate number.
I had to redo the Indian head logo several times until I was happy with it.
I thought they came out cute and they're just big enough they
can wear them again next year.
I don't have a particular pattern because
I used a couple patterns and modified alot.

Beautiful work -- I am jealous. I have been trying to get up the nerve to make a NY Yankee uniform for my little one but I am afraid that is beyond my ability

Your chrandchildren are very lucky to have you and your talent!

OMG, I am so impressed with your work. I only wish I were 1/2 as good as you. I can do a lot but I have never made up anything as wonderful as what you have done. You have such lucky grandsons. God bless you all! Take care and keep on hooking!!! Love, Betty Lynn

[Mrs. P]

Thank you Beatrice, all I can say is keep on crocheting,
the more you crochet the more you learn.
I love being challenged with difficult patterns.

jdgmar I have the pattern for the White Sox cardigan shown here
but I've made a few different sports teams using the same pattern.
It's the Birthday Baby Pocket Cardigan & Hat
at the Lion Brand Yarn Company,
for some reason it won't allow me to post the link here.

For the logos and team colors I just went online
and found several pictures and tried to copy them.

Thanks to Moogly for her alphabet tutorial.
