Berroco: Vintage Baby Line Expands

Few years back Berroco introduced a great baby yarn: Vintage Baby. It's a true "baby" yarn, meaning sport (think in between sock and dk). We love it. It's adorable little mini skeins (50g), washable and awesome colors. 

Now they've added Vintage Baby Handpaint. Sweet little hanks in same baby friendly yarn in rich, tonal multicolor or perfect splatter, speckles. Use separate or together since the colors blend perfectly. As with it's Vintage Baby, this new line perfect for all things baby but now with a touch of fun.

Berroco's pattern picks for both lines include a variety. There's garments and blankets (knit and crochet), of course. Here's brand new freebie, Wren. A cardi using both solid and handpaint; top-down construction.

If you need a faster project the hat, booties or even toy elephant work. You can never have enough booties. Plus it's a great way to dip your toe into making socks. 

We think using the wee Minutia patterns for a sweet garland or daisy chains make unique baby gifts too. You can easily turn this into a mobile for over baby's crib. 

Have a gander at our past blog posts: Vintage Baby Trunk Show We had this in shop couple years back and fell in love with all the patterns:

 Vintage Baby Collection 2023.

Vintage Baby Collection 

I've STILL got a Kirby (still) on the needles (stranded on sleeve island) and (weekly) I plan to tackle mastering Frankie, (on my crochet bucket list). My Kirby WIP is further along now than seen in blog post. It's just waiting for me to finish the sleeves.....( "I just need to finish these stupid sleeves!). The blog post highlighted 5 WIPs. To my credit...the Fuzzy Mustard JoLo-ish baby cardi I actually finished last year and it's working it in the shop! 1 out of 5 done not so bad! LOL [Scroll down the blog post for one of my favorite tips: IC cords in lieu of stitch holders/waste yarn.] 

You can find our Vintage Baby and Vintage Baby Handpaints online or in the shop. It's a great yarn when you need smaller amounts, baby/kid friendly and don't want to break the bank! 

Other lines of note: Berroco Vintage Sock and WYS Bo Peep Luxury DK. Also superwash. The WYS distributed by Berroco and works great with all the Vintage Baby yarns. Great when you want stripes!
