Baby tiger booties

Pattern available 




Adorable 100% fine merino handknit booties, light grey color with Liberty of London ribbon (Meadow purple, red or Capel Mustard). 

Keeping baby feet warm and cosy is essential especially in the first days of a baby life. Ribbon will assure the booties are still one even if baby is on the move. 

Knitted in the round from top, cable cuff first, then top of the foot and finally finishing with the sides and the sole. 

I tried to avoid seaming as often as possible, to provide more comfort for babies.

Gauge
28 sts and 34 rows = 10 cm/4", in st sts using US3 (3.25 mm)

 1 ball of Malabrigo Finito, fingering yarn, about 60 m or 70 yards

Christmas gift, part 3

Last but not list, this Christmas gift is for a dear friend who always think of bringing me something wherever she travels!!

We had gone shopping at the mall one day together and she loved a slouchy hat at Urban Outfitters but the quality wasn't worth the price so I decided to knit one for her and add a matching cowl.



Pattern hat was easily found on Ravelry and the cowl is just the same pattern but not decreasing, just bind off.

Yarn is Madelinetosh Tosh DK, color Dalia

She loves purple, I love cable!!

Almost done



Almost done with the baby clothes for my nephew, one more pajamas in a soft alpaca with lots and lots of cable...open in the back as usual. It is the best way for baby, just for changing dippers.
A perfect baby shower gift for a baby to sleep all in softness. $76.



Pattern will be soon available on Ravelry.

Alpaca Ensemble


I have been working for a long time on a pair of pants to match the alpaca sweater.
I finally succeded and voila!!




The pants have front and back pockets, like a pair of jeans with a button zipper and some holes to have a ribbon to adjust the waist of the baby. I also reprised the same cable details, I loved so much for the sweater.
