There is nothing nicer than a Nana knitted garment. My kids are very lucky in that they have my Mother-in-law, my Mum and my Nana (amongst others) that knit for them!
My Mother-in-law recently finished knitting this gorgeous double breasted car coat and beret for Isabelle. The wool she used is so lovely and soft and is a merino, possum blend. The pattern is from the book Vintage Knits for Modern Babies by Hadley Fierlinger. I love this book it is so awesome!
If you’ve been following my blog for a while you might remember the Vintage Pixie Hat I knitted for Isabelle, also from this book.
My, how much she’s grown!
Thank you Nana Jocelyn for such a lovely coat and hat, I know Isabelle is going to get a lot of wear out of them both this and probably the next Winter to come!
linking up with WKWW and (on behalf of my Mother-in-law’s awesome skillz) my creative space , Show and Tell and make it wear it.

I love this pattern! She looks just like the original photo! I have made the beret, but have always loved the whole ensemble. Your mum did a great job - same colour and everything. Looks so cosy and sweet. My mum knits lots too - love it!!
What a beautiful ensemble your daughter is wearing. Very cozy - wonder how it would look in an adult size.
Oh my goodness! This knit outfit is just too cute!! I love it. Stopping by from the link party at one little momma!!

That looks like a great book, so many cute knits. Your kids are so lucky to have so many knitters in the family.
