We would like to introduce our new baby boy to our YARNutopia community. There are NO words to express how much we are in love with this precious little peanut and how it feels to be first time parents; so instead of doing that at this time, we ask you to please enjoy these exclusive beautiful photos – many of which are being shared here for the very first time.
He arrived a little earlier than expected, and although nothing about his delivery was easy, in the end, holding him in our arms was so worth it! Oh. MY. Gosh. THE LOVE!
Nate and I are overwhelmed with joy and want to share our happiness with our online family community. As soon as I am feeling better, I will write a little more about this entire experience in detail!
So many people tried to tell us how this would feel. NOTHING compares to the real thing. NOTHING!! WE ARE SO IN LOVE WITH HIM!
Name: Nasir Nathan
Born June 13th, 2019 at 12:15pm
Weight: 6 lbs, 12 oz.
Length: 18.9 inches
Things we observed so far: He has his Daddy’s face and wavy dark hair, but he has Mommy’s nose and dimples. He has long fingers like Mommy but Daddy’s toes lol. As we continue to discover one another, we look forward to finding more of these amazing connections. It is the most profound feeling ever to meet this tiny human, see pieces of ourselves in him, and know that we made him!
You can’t go wrong with this ensemble!! Perfect for any baby on your gift giving list or any special baby event! Change up the colors for a boy or a girl! There’s definitely something to love in this set! These pieces can be made any time of year! Make one or make all four pieces below. Click the links or the photos to be redirected to their written patterns and video tutorials. All crochet patterns in this post are FREE!
As our “All Things Boy” week draws to a close, we end with a pair of Baby Boy Knickers with Suspenders. This tiny pair of pants are sure to bring out many ‘oohs’ and ‘ahhs’ because they are just that cute!
Here they are paired with a little t-shirt onesie.
These would look adorable with any pairing!
These are very versatile. You do not have to add the suspenders. You can add a drawstring. You can make these as big or as small as you’d like! I give information for larger sizes in the NOTES section, below.
Check out the other videos I filmed this week to complete this whole ensemble!

This darling basket weave baby boy hat is the second piece to our little boy layette set we have been working on. This cute little cap is using a new stitch giving a bit of pattern and texture to our set. As we continue with these items, they can be altered to fit a little boy or little girl simply by changing colors. It is a very versatile hat.
