Here's what I've been doing last week:
http://www.sandbenders.demon.co.uk/gallery/lizard.htm
for my friend's impending baby.  The T shirt was dyed once for each colour.
The lace is a very simple pattern from a folder by Clare Burkhard of
animals.  The lizard is in whole stitch, with the outlines in cloth stitch
and twist.  The body takes 6 pairs, with 3 pairs being added for each leg.
I used Bockens 35/2 linen, which I just happened to have in a blue that
exactly matched one of the dye colours.

Now in progress a big orange fish from the same pattern folder to go on a
mainly blue shirt. After that, then the bootees from "Lapsia Nyplaten"
(Children in Bobbin Lace), p64, by Eva Lisa Kortelahti, that Alice Howell
recommended to me.
