Are you headed up town to the local ball diamond to watch little league or softball games? Why not combine two things you love?

Pack up your knitting supply bag and a comfortable chair and knit away while you cheer on the locals! Get some fresh air and have your friends join you, too. Hit the concession stand for a cold drink to keep hydrated and then settle in and start moving those needles. If the sun is too warm, just slide your seats to a shady spot.
Any current project you are working is good, but free baby sweater knitting patterns are the way to go if you are looking for something new.
Shells and Columns Baby Set
There’s something about creating baby garments and accessories just warms the heart. Many patterns, like A Primary Work of Art, incorporate bold bright colors as well as the more traditional pastel colors. Toasty sweaters will keep little ones warm on those chilly days, while they are enjoying the outdoors. Use yarns made especially for baby’s soft, sensitive skin.
A Primary Work of Art
Whoever you are knitting for and whatever the project, a group ‘knitting circle’ at the ball field is a fun way to enjoy the world of crafting. It’s also a great place for more experienced knitters to invite curious youngsters to learn the craft and impart on them this great pastime.
