Knitter(s) needed...ASAP

I have just been notified of some issues with my last batch of orders. Most of the orders come to me packaged, so things get missed. This is the second problem of the nature, so I have to let my knitter go.

It is not acceptable to me. I pride myself with providing the highest quality items and when that is not the case...I am mortified. If you are a knitter, or know a knitter...I am looking for help. I pay well (hence the reason they cost what they do). The knitter will need the following knowledge to qualify

Non Smoking Enviroment
Pet Free
Knit in round
Garter Stitch
Decrease Stitch
In the US (unless you or they are willing to ship at their own expenses)

If anyone has had any problems with your product that has not contacted me, please do so! I will either refund you or get you a new item as soon as I can. Thank you for bearing with this slight delay! Marta

Captured by Carrie and the {cocoon}

I was so excited when I found out the Carrie wanted one of my {cocoons}. I just had to be patient and wait for the images. She has a special plan for this particular one (Olive), that hasn't happened yet, but I will continue to wait until she gets a chance to try out her vision.

Here are a few images from a recent shoot that she did. I know she is known for her BW's but, that color one is just so yummy!
You can see more of her work here or read more about the book she is putting together with fellow photographer Britt Woodall at the BareBaby Blog.

Images of Grace and the {cocoon}

Wow....just wow! I just spent 3 hours in kiddy chaos and I sat down exhausted to take a quick peek at my email. And look what I found!!! Amy of Images of Grace sent me this wonderful email of the most stunning images of the Olive {cocoon}. Just breathtaking and pure.

A quick quote from Amy.."I just loved how easy it is...I ordered 2 already and about to order a 3rd...THANKS!"

Keep sending the images and I will keep posting these amazing inspirations!

{cocoon} - Organic

The new {cocoon} colors are here, and they are in a all new yarn. 100% Organic Cotton in the softest texture and the most natural of colors.



The new Organic {cocoon} will come with the all organic handmade wooden buttons just like the original. The flowers and rafia used in the images do not come with the {coocoon}, but used mainly to show the endless possibilities to make this your own. Due to the weight and texture of the yarn the knit on these is a little looser (just a little). But you will see a little more skin, and have a little more stretch. It does have a great drape to it as well.

Please excuse my use of the baby doll. All of my newborns are coming next month (5). But I just couldn't wait any longer to release the new yarns. I will have plenty of images next month of my babies in them, and photos of the other colors.

The Wrap in use!

This one is from Cherry Cortez. She used the Urban Wrap here, and he looks like a little peanut. With a touch of vintage and texture, she made a wonderfully unique image.

Alexandra Jose was wonderful enough to share that you don't have to just use them for newborns! This is a 4 month old. The wrap make a wonderfully vibrant addition to the image.
