  1. Hello Marianna. We love your patterns over here across the pond! I am the director of an angel gown program in Western New York (https://www.facebook.com/caringhandsforangels/). I am wondering if you would give permission for us to post your Sweet Angel Baby Bonnet pattern on our volunteer-only information page -- along with the Charlie booties. We would give full credit and copyright notice on the pattern page. Also, I myself am not a knitter. Can you give me a sense of the gestational ages for the small, medium, large angel and the preemie sizes for this bonnet? Thank you so much! Bernadette Reidy, Director, Caring hands For Angels, Inc.

  9. I love this pattern. I am beginner. My mom taught me at 12 but all I knew was knit and purl. Now I am a grandmother. I made these booties and I'm so thrilled at how they came out! It is so much easier to know baby patterns than to start a big project and get stuck. Thank you for this pattern. I'm searching your website for a baby hat to go with it.
