Cute accessories, great gifts4
This book is packed with cute projects for small items -- from teddy bear slippers to toys to room accessories. Though it has one cute wrap sweater and some hats, it's basically features a set of big and colorful building blocks, bibs, pillow and blanket, bottle covers, a big stripy snake toy, and room decor such as a string of hearts and a storage pot cover.

These would be great small projects for a baby shower. As in the author's book Baby Knits, all the yarns used are by the English company Rowan. These are available in the US, but may be hard to find. The US standards for yarn sizes aren't included, so knowing how to substitute may be difficult. You'll need to make gauge
swatches to determine what yarn works best.
