Little Snugglies
This post is an announcement, mostly, because I’ve just opened a new Etsy shop called verypink knits. As you know, I knit like a fiend, but this is the first time I’ve ever put any knits up for sale. Up until now, I’ve sold knitting patterns and knitting classes to help other people make their own stuff. So this is all brand spankin’ new to me, and very exciting.
My philosophy with the store is to use the best materials in modern designs and colors to offer really nice baby stuff. My hope is that people will visit my store when they’re in the market for special baby shower gifts. When store-bought just won’t do.
Here’s a sample of one of my hat/mitts sets from the store:
And here’s how it looks on a real baby:
I had to say “real baby” there, because for once, I’m not using a Basenji to model baby knits. This is how most of my baby stuff ends up being modeled, right?
So, if you like what you see, tell your friends. I’ll be posting 0-6 month sizes soon. I have several already knit up, but I’m waiting for the sun to come out so that I can get some good photographs.
Man, I finished writing this post a while ago, I can’t believe I’m nervous to hit “Publish”! Do it, Staci! Do it! New horizons!

I had someone translate the last comment and it was very complimentary to your videos and hoped you understand Spanish (you probably already know that, but for others who don’t read Spanish) (like me) I thought I would be helpful.

Hi Staci,
Welcome to Etsy! I was in your Beginner I and II classes in December. I’m about to finish my 4th scarf from that pattern (I made two scarflet/button cowls also) and will start on your sock videos next.
Take care,
Carol B

Congrats on the new store! As someone who does not have children but does have a basenji, I must say I really like your b-models!

I love the hat. I told my friend she needs to have another baby. Then I could get one for her. I could try one on the cats. Then again maybe not.
