Oh where does the time go? It seems like just yesterday we brought this little guy home from the hospital and now he is nine months old!! I took these pictures over the summer when he was smaller but time has just flown by so fast. Yarn: Malabrigo Yarn Merino Worsted (100% Merino Wool; 210 yards [192 meters]/100 grams): 508 Blue Graphite, 3 skeins Halloween 2023 is upon us and we have you covered with plenty of creepy yet fun Halloween costume ideas for the scariest day of the year. We also have an amazing collection of Halloween costumes for kids and adults. Whether you want to dress up as a superhero or you’re looking for sinister and stylish costumes to be for Halloween, you're in the right place. I want to be able to easily change a diaper without having to undo a ton of buttons, and, let’s face it – two buttons at the crotch area is not going to stay closed very well so larger buttons don’t work that great. I wanted snaps like a regular onesie and thank goodness snap tape is out there. Row 6: Ch 3, (2 dc in next dc, dc in next 4 dc, ch 2) twice, dc in next 4 dc, 2 dc in next dc, turn – 18 sts.

I just went to my local JoAnn store to the ribbon section and bought it by the yard. It also sews in super easy, too, even if you aren’t good at sewing! It doesn’t take much – I even had some of the 1/4 yard left over.

Design: If your baby will be wearing the costume for an hour or longer, save yourself a headache and look for one that allows easy access for diaper changes. Many have snaps along the inseam or leggings that are easy to take on and off. It also fits really well since I used a onesie as a guide (we sure do have enough of them!) and the snap tape makes it easy to get baby in and out – something that a lot of knit and crocheted baby items don’t think about! There are lots of great baby Halloween costumes too like ghost costumes or baby devils! Other families may choose to keep all their costumes on theme by dressing as the same cast from a film like the Addams Family. Row 8: Ch 3, (2 dc in next dc, dc in next 6 dc, ch 2) twice, dc in next 6 dc, 2 dc in next dc, turn – 24 sts.

Safety: Costumes should be the right size for your baby. They also shouldn’t have small parts or accessories that could break off and cause a potential choking hazard. And you should avoid anything with pieces that cover their nose or mouth for the same reason. According to American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommendations, costumes should also clearly say “flame resistant” on the label. Row 9: Ch 3, (dc in next 7 dc, 2 dc in next dc, ch 2) twice, dc in next 7 dc, 2 dc in next dc, turn – 27 sts. Row 10: Ch 3, (2 dc in next dc, dc in next 8 dc, ch 2) twice, dc in next 8 dc, 2 dc in next dc, turn – 30 sts. I love designing baby things, though, and even when we don’t have a baby in the house I will still keep making baby items. I’ll just have to find someone else’s little one to model for me!
