Answer by LMT
I generally do 45×45. First of all, it will shrink a little in the wash. Also, babies stay tiny for such a short time. If it is bigger, they can enjoy it when baby is a toddler. Finally, the extra size helps make wrapping the child more secure.

Question by : Help with knitting The chicks with sticks guide to knitting?
I’m finishing up with the envelope bag from The Chicks with Sticks Guide to Knitting. I can’t figure out how to make the loop for my button. It doesn’t really explain how to make it correctly. How do I do it?

Answer by Stargazer
I don’t have a copy of this particular volume, but there are a number of ways to make a loop used to capture a button. You could take 3 strands and braid them together. You could make a small i-cord using fine yarn the same, or contracting color, or you could just knit a small flap and bind off enough stitches on one row and cast them back on on the next row leaving a good ‘hole’ for your button. If you can share the directions, maybe I can help interpret them.

Written Instructions – crochet-mania.blogspot.com This is dedicated to all breastfeeding moms. I breastfed all my babies in public 29 years ago. Women should not be forced or shamed in to a dirty bathroom to feed their babies. When baby is hungry, feed your baby. Don’t let someone else make you feel it is wrong. The divine plan for human nature set it to breastfeed your baby. Shame on the people who take what is natural and turn it in to something else.
