Miss Pink & Mr Bajs

I had this pattern published in Crochet Me August 2005. My baby modelled it :) Please meet Miss Pink (the backpack) and Mr Bajs (the coin purse). I came up with the idea for these two designs at a Midsummer party a few years ago. Celebrating Midsummer is an old Swedish tradition, and as always we celebrated the day with our friends and their families. One of the kids at the party would talk of nothing else but Pee Pee and Poo Poo - all day long. I thought that it was quite funny at first, and being a mother to a 2-year-old daughter, I knew that it was a topic that would soon arise at our house as well. So I ended up designing the backpack Miss Pink, and the coin purse Mr Bajs, which are Swedish for Pee Pee and Poo Poo. Miss Pink and Mr Bajs are both easy and fast projects to make, and can be completed in just a couple of evenings. They can also be made up as soft toys if you fill them with stuffing instead of making them up as the backpack and coin purse. I’m sure your little ones will love their new friends Miss Pink and Mr Bajs, as my daughter did when she got them.
