More warm hat goodness….

On Wednesday I am releasing my second pattern. This one is for a fabulously simple ear flap hat. I find this hat perfect to pair with knitted longies, which is why I am granting permission for WAHM’s to sell this hat either by itself or as a set with a pair of pants. Check it out here - Ky Baby Ear Warmer Hat

Pamela Grossman worked with me as technical editor, so you can be assured this pattern is written clearly! She is fabulous. Pamela also helped to edit The Hudson Pattern which is selling well!

In closing, please say hello to the newest member of the Baker Clan. He is quickly learning his manners and his place within the Baker pack. I hope he continues to do well and stay with us forever. Macky the Bulldog:

About

My name is Lindsay Baker, and I live in the beautiful Willamette Valley of Oregon. By my side is my wonderful husband, Ian, and our four kids: Jackson, Kylie, Willow, and Annabelle.

My husband and I both grew up here in Corvallis Oregon and ran in the same circles as teens and young adults. We had our son Jackson in 1998, while we were both just getting ready to go to college. Then in 2004 Kylie came along, and just 19 months later we were blessed with out twins, Willow and Annabelle. As you might guess, this slowed down the college train just a bit. However, Ian is graduating in June with a B.S. in Radiation Health Physics and already has a job waiting in the beautiful Puget Sound area. We have our eyes locked on a beautiful home that overlooks downtown Seattle.

My business was founded in 2005 when I wanted to knit longies to go over my daughter Kylie’s cloth diapers. She was the inspiration that led me to learn to knit and dye my own yarn. Even as recently as 2005 there weren’t a lot of creative independent yarn dyers selling their work yet. Luckily for me, this meant I “had” to jump in and learn to dye my own! I named my business after my “Ky Baby” (Kylie) since if it wasn’t for her, I may have never picked up those knitting needles!

I’ve just recently begun designing and writing knitting patterns as well. This has been a new and fun challenge that I hope to continue.

I am so thankful and grateful that I was inspired to make fiber arts a huge part of my life. It is a creative outlet that gives me a sense of purpose outside of my regular (and much loved!) roles of “Mother” and “Wife”.
