PPBB #9 And More FO Sightings

Posted in baby stuff, booties, socks at 11:50 am by pauline

Here’s PPBB #9 going off to another baby shower at Nate & Christina’s church in Maine.

I started PPBB #9 before PPBB#2 a little more than a year ago and finished them last night after getting another bootie request from Nate & Christina. I followed Christine Bourquin’s pattern exactly and added the pom-poms. The yarn is Lion Brand Baby Soft and the needles I used are Susan Bates #1 Circulars.

Here are some more FO sightings from Maine:

PPBB#8 and its proud new owner.

and PPBB#6 on a very pink cutie!

And Making Waves makes an appearance in Portland, Maine.

Slipped Stitch Socks Finished

Posted in socks at 12:53 pm by pauline

Since there are only a few sock wearing months left in California, I finished up my Slipped Stitch socks in Fiber Fiend sock yarn, last weekend.

I washed and blocked them and now they are ready to wear!

I love the way the striping turned out with the slipped stitches.

I especially like the the striping on the heel.

Off I go, with my favorite clogs and my brand new socks!

Best Of Both Worlds

Posted in socks, yarn at 12:51 pm by pauline

Last night I finished my first Thelonious Sock, knit in BMFA Socks That Rock, Monsoon colorway. Not only do I get to knit a brand new pattern from the freakin’ sock genius Cookie, I get to do it with some absolutely gorgeous yarn from the STR Sock Club. In my yarn loving, sock loving universe, it’s the best of both worlds.
