Knitting for the NICU: Easter 2011

 

I am so excited for our NICU babies.  A bunch of wonderful gals have volunteered to knit with me for our babies so instead of just me and my little silliness we have a whole room full of talented knitters creating gorgeous hats for our little Littles this year.  Starting with Easter bunnies, chicks, and eggs, thank you so much for my partners in crime:  Shelly Grant, Kathy Grimes, Yung Bishop, Suzanne Anderson, Jordan McAdams, Sydney McAdams, and Nicole Kirk.  Shelly, Kathy, Yung, and Nicole are all RT's with our hospital, Suzanne is my sister, and Jordan and Sydney are my teenaged nieces. I could say they're my sister's daughters but that would imply that they belong to her but they don't. They're mine and I just allow Suzanne to raise them.  :-)

 

I'll be bringing in two big bags of hats today:  one marked Easter and one marked Spring/Summer as we get new babies after Easter.

 

 

We've designated Kathy as our resident animal maker--how cute are these? I can't decide which are my favorite, they're all so adorable!

 

Yung has become happily obsessed with making flowers and butterflies--aren't they beautiful? 

    Happy Easter everyone!

Hi! My name is Kelly. I stumbled across your blog in search of a cherry lime aid recipe. I happened to see your preemie caps and it made me smile. My little miracle is 2 years old. I still cherish the precious little pumpkin hat someone gave her in the NICU. Thank you for your kindness :)

Ahhhh, two years old? What a FUN age! Thank YOU. It makes it all worth it when our little hats mean something to you parents.
