Hand Knitted Baby Clothing

Sorry random Q but does anyone know where I can buy hand knitted baby stuff, in Auckland? I would like to buy a woollen jersey for Liam for the winter.

I am thinking of a charity kind of shop (often associated with a church??). I remember going to one last year in Tauranga where old ladies knit up things & sell them with the profits going to charity - if you know what I mean . I don't want to pay heaps of $$.

TIA.

What size is he??

I might have some stuff.

Becks, he's usually 00 in tops.

My Mum & sister have each knitted him a jersey but one is already too small . I wish I could knit more than scarves & peggy squares!

Have you looked on TM. There are lots of ladies that sell hand-knitted things on there.

Also - not sure if it still happens or not, but at North Shore Hospital once a week there used to be like a few little market stalls, where older ladies would sell knitted things and crafts for charity. Might be worth calling the info desk to ask if it still happens?

 

Salvation army shops might be a go.  They often have that sort of thing.

I had a look and all the stuff I have is small newborn stuff . I know I won't need it next time around so stink.

There used to be a reguilar type of craft market in Devonport on a Sunday (once a month or so) and there were always lots of stalls with handknitted items. Check and see if there are any craft markets, church, or scholl fairs happening in yopur area as there are usually stalls selling this type of stuff there.

Hospice is great for things like that, my mum found a bit of stuff in op shops like Salvation Army etc.

I got some cute stuff from a Hospice shop
