Monogrammed Baby Onesies

What do you give to the mom who has everything?
Well. Not technically. But, in this case, I needed to give a unique baby gift to a friend who already has twin toddlers. That means she already owns the requisite baby equipment … times two! And I didn’t want to knit something. First, I’m a S.L.O.W. knitter, so odds of the “baby” having a driver’s license by the time I finished the garment are high. And second, this particular mom is the Domestic Knitter. So, I felt like it would be akin to giving cupcakes to your friend the baker.
So I came up with this: monogrammed, hand-dyed onesies.  Dana over at Made had dyed onesies  and I totally loved the idea! It makes them so unique! Out came the Rit dye!
Next, I made five different freezer paper stencils of the letter S (for baby Sebastian).
Now he has onesies in fun colors with his initial on them – so no mistaking them as big brother’s hand-me-downs!


Pin It!
