My Aunt Sharon and I have always been close. I still remember making gingerbread houses in her kitchen when my head barely reached her counter. Although we were happy to move back to Colorado a few months ago, I was heartbroken I wouldn’t be as close to Houston, Aunt Sherry and my sweet Grammy (see picture above…Lucille Amelia’s namesake!).
On Thursday night, my aunt threw me a beautiful baby shower. My sweet Grammy couldn’t have been more thrilled to attend the happy affair. My belly is growing daily, and I’m having to stretch t-shirts and dresses over what’s become my basketball size stomach/uterus. Old friends and family were excited to see the progress. But these knitted treasures were the true stars of the evening. My aunt is an incredibly talented knitter. She works at Knitting at the Loop, a beautiful store in Houston that encourages community through their fine goods, classes, and patterns.
I thought I’d share her creations for little Lucy. I have no doubt they’ll be treasured for the rest of my life and my daughter’s life too.

GORGEOUS pink tutu
Did I mention how blessed I feel in this season of my life? So thankful for the beautiful community Lucy will join.
Monet, how happy you must have felt – these fabulous handmade gifts are true treasures! And the pictures are just wonderful too!
All the best and enjoy the weekend!
These handmade things are so pretty! I especially love a baby cap with pink rosette – so adorable!
Oh sweet lord TOO adorable! I love the hat and tutu especially!
That tutu– Oh. My. Word. Seriously, cutest thing EVER! What a lovely shower, and how wonderful to celebrate with family!
So cute!
What a nice and beautiful baby shower, I like a lot this tradition and it is a pity we do not have it here in Italy or Sweden. Oh my god… those beautiful creations! I think knitting is a real art. I have started chochet and I hope in the future I can make some of those cute little things.
Have a nice weekend!
Ciao.
Everything she made is absolutely adorable! What a lovely family you are part of. Hope you’re having a wonderful weekend!
Monet, these are fabulous! Real treasure! How little and how cute! Your aunt is really so talented! You’re so lucky to have her! Lucy is so lucky to have all of you! BTW what are those burp clotes? I mean how are they used?
How precious! These will be family heirlooms one day, and your little one is going to look sooo sweet in them!
You have such a sweet family! all those little treasures are beautiful but I’m particularly in love with that tutu! it’s completely adorable!

What sweet and special gifts. I’m so thrilled for you 🙂 Much happiness deserved!
I am so looking forwarding to seeing sweet Lucy modeling these little treasures! I know they will become family heirlooms!

Such beautiful work! Hand-knitted baby clothes are some of the most satisfying projects ever–not least because of the excitement of a brand new person getting to wear them. (Can you tell that I also knit?:) )
I would love to learn to knit, Eileen. It seems like such a rewarding endeavor.
These are so beautiful, Monet! I especially love hat with the adorable rosette on it. These are lifetime keepers! You have such a sweet and loving family, the very best kind of community 🙂
How absolutely adorable! No doubt Lucy will treasure these forever 🙂
Oh my goodness . . . so much cuteness! I love the tutu. That is possibly the most precious thing ever.
How freaking cute and cozy! I want to climb in those little pantaloons and tutu and twirl around the house. Seriously, these knits are adorable and I can’t wait to see pictures of Lucy wearing them!
It really is lovely to read all your posts, and see how happy you and your hubby are. You really are blessed with such a gorgeous family, they all sound so wonderful! Your knitted treasures, are truly that, treasures! They are so beautiful! Hugs, Terra

Such talent your aunt has! Those are beautiful.
Thanks for sharing this wonderful get together – you are indeed blessed! I saved the knitted and crocheted treasures given to my girls and then had the blessing of seeing my grandkids enjoy them too – lots of great memories!
It’s all so beautiful!
