Layette Set #61 for KnitWits

 This is the second to the last layette set I'll be making for KnitWits. I'll be making one more and that will be it because we are in great need of adult hats, so I'll be going into hat mode. Here's set number 61.

Comments: Glad it's done. I do like that shade of yellow.

I decided to do the hood striped. I love it! It's so darn cute!



I love the way the stripes meet on the center back seam too.



Of course, I had to go to Joann's and get another package of bee buttons. Got the last one.



There are two shades of yellow, though the difference doesn't show much in the photos.



This is how the back looks when all put together.
