Small Fries Entry at the Delaware County Fair

A few days ago the owlet sweater made for baby nom was entered in the Delaware County Fair. The judging was yesterday and the sweater took 2nd place (In the first photo it is shown next to the first place entry).



The apple of our eye hat was has finally been worn.



Two of the childrens bibs offered on the Pro-Portional Designs Etsy shop were entered in the Ohio State Fair, one of them took third place. This item has also been featured on Tots N' Giggles, Cheezeburger.com, and Everything Burger.

Since theses are two items you have all already seen here on Small Fries here's another item made for the little one. Baby's First Sushi was started near the beginning of my pregnancy and then sat around not being finished until the last trimester.

The pattern used was "Nigiri Sushi Baby Wipe Cozy/Toy" by MK Carroll, a pattern I'd wanted for years but that was unavailable online for all that time. Finally I contacted the designer and she'd had no idea that the pattern link via Ravelry was a dud. For those of you interested in this pattern, have no fear, it is once again available for purchase online.

How It Began

As I mentioned once before, Jim's Pancakes was the inspiration for this blog. I love that he posts these amazing pancake creations he lovingly prepares for his little girl.

During the nesting stage of my pregnancy I was overwhelmed with the desire to make things for my impending offspring. After I'd made quite a few items I thought I may create a blog where I would post what is regularly being made for Baby Nom as well as other useful parenting info I come across.

The Small Fries Facebook fan page of the Om Nom Nom Studios Twitter are the best places to get links that I don't feel require an entire post as well as vlogs.

This is the sweater that kicked off the marathon of baby knitting.


The pattern is Kate Davies popular baby sweater, Owlet.

*I'd made a few baby items before but around the time I made this sweater I became obsessed with making quite a lot of items. Before, I was in no hurry and was nowhere near as feverish in my baby knitting.
