My New Baby Carrier & A Random Yarn Bombing

June 13, 2011 Leave a Comment

Had a great weekend enjoying our new Boba baby carrier! A lady came into the shop with one of these the other day, holding her 2yo like it was nothing, and I had to have one, seriously. Holds up to 45 Lbs, extremely comfortable, even has kiddo foot stirrups for leg support. L-O-V-E totin my 1yo around in this thing.

Only thing I didn’t love was the decorative fabric pattern on the front. Hmmm, came in a bright green/blue geometric tweetie bird thing…not my style. So I recovered it in this stunning turquoise cotton/linen blend by Japanese designer Kayo Horaguchi. It’s luscious!

Also, some fun mysterious yarn art popped up at the end of our block on Friday…no one seems to know where it came from, but whoever did this had some serious time on their hands-customized a sweater for this huge split trunk tree! People were literally pulling over in their cars to look at it, so, whoever you are, mission accomplished- it’s causing quite a stir!
