FO Lacy Tank

The lacy tank. Great little knit, hate the yarn. I wore this for about 2 hours before I had to take it off - it had stretched beyond wear. Grrrr!

FO: Baby Edwin's Sweater

Edwin's sweater knit in the old Cotton Ease for my friend's newborn. It is actually larger than newborn due to the worsted weight, but since they live in Indiana, I figured this is something he will wear all winter.


I am also working on (2) Lacey Girl sweaters for my friend who has twin granddaughters. Pics soon...

As soon as all this baby knitting is done, it is on to Tea Leaves for me, knit in City Tweed DK.

Have a fabulous fall week-

FO: Tiny Tea Leaves

Tiny Tea Leaves by Madelinetosh



Knit with the (nice) discontinued Sirdar Breeze. My former student's daughter is 3 yrs old and is about to have a brand new baby brother. I thought she might like something special for herself.

Love the ruching!!




Love it so much, I bought the adult version to knit one for me!
I think I'll knit Baby Sophisticate for the new baby boy. I have a little of the old Cotton Ease in a medium blue wanting to be knit into this.
I'll post as soon as it is finished. It might take a while as school is in session and the University starts tomorrow. My schedule is too full right now... we'll see how I manage.
Til next time .... happy knitting :-)

FO: 5 Hour Baby Sweater

Although it is a 5 hour sweater, it took me closer to 6. There are many of these found on the web, but this is the pattern I used.




The yarn is Cotton Ease and it was knit on #10 Options. I used dpns for the sleeves so there would be no seams. There is a matching bonnet and booties. I'll post them next time :-)
I love knitting baby clothes. They are so adorable and provide instant gratification. You know exactly what I mean, don't you? What other garment can we knit in 5 or 6 hours?
