A friend of mine told me she had her new baby give his big brother a gift when they came home from the hospital and it really helped minimize jealousy, etc. I was inspired to knit a gift for Baby D to give to Olivia. O's really into buttons, snaps, zippers, and tying shoes right now, so I modified a pattern from "The Best Dressed Knitted Bear" by Emma King (http://www.amazon.com/Best-Dressed-Knitted-Bear-Patterns-Accessories/dp/0307453820)
I'll let you know if it does the trick or not!
What a great idea! You amaze me with your knitting modifications - I'm always too scared to try and "change" a pattern - have you picked a baby name?
