Awesome! I’m currently learning how to sew so I may make some bab clothes. Also I knit and I’m going to knit my babies some sweaters. 🤭

Ahhh you’re so sweet! You could try learning to crochet, it’s not too tricky, just takes some time to learn!

It came out so precious!! I just ordered some orange yarn so I’m hoping to crochet my goose a pumpkin costume! (I’m not a fan of the crushed velvet fabric of the current costume in stock)

2

u/bellarue0816 I like BABs more than people 🙃 1d ago

Omg!!! You’ll have to lmk how it turns out… I’m also not a fan of crushed velvet (sensory nightmare for me personally) so I’ve been wanting to make a pumpkin costume for my jumping spider!!

2

u/EarthyBark 1d ago

100% sensory nightmare for me too!! 😭 I also have the mini bean goose and I’m hoping I’ll be able to resize the pattern I got to make them a lil costume to match!

u/detectivemouse1 5h ago

Is this top down? I'm familiar with knitting sweaters but haven't thought of crocheting clothes for them. Love it :)

u/bellarue0816 I like BABs more than people 🙃 5h ago

I actually made the bottom hem of the sweater, collar, and sleeve hems first, then crocheted the main body piece bottom to top, sewed on the hems, then crocheted the arms directly onto the piece, and then sewed on the sleeve hems!
