Easy on easy off, plenty of openings on shoulders and back to make it easy for your child.

Summer Shellseeker


Loved the pattern, but decided to challenge myself when choosing Woolmeise as the yarn. I had to recalculate all measurements to adjust with fingering yarn.
The pocket lining was a little challenging for me because I couldn’t see it while reading the pattern. After reading some comments, I just follow the pattern and it went well, everything came together at the end. I was just overthingking it.
I ran out of yarn so I chose to make it short sleeves and used the little extra blue for a sleeve and neck ribbing borders.
Woolmeise is the perfect yarn for summer in California. It is warm but light so it stay fresh during the day and warm enough for the cooler night. 
Note to myself, get some more for future projects!!


Pattern: "Shellseeker" by Heidi Kirrmaier
Yarn: Wollmeise, "Pure" 100% Merino Superwash, color Aquarius and Natur

Easy Happy Feet



3 size, 1 ball, these little sox are super easy and adorable.

I combined a few techniques and made a mistake at the heel on my first pair trying the short heel technique.

I found my mistake a way better result than the short heel. It works well on baby because their heel is not as defined as an adult.

From experience, I thought babies needed socks until they try to stand up so I made the pattern for 1 month, 3 month and up to 6 month old.


Size
Fits baby from 1, 3 to 6 months old

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

Required materials
1 ball of Jojoland cashmere, fingering yarn, about 180 m or 200 yards
US 3 (3.25 mm), circular or DPN


Tuto disponible en français sur demande.
Après achat de la version anglaise, envoyer moi un email at byaltadena@gmail.com


I knitted a few samples for my first orders in size 6 months
 Mustard socks are with Classic Elite Alpaca sox
 Pink socks are in Jojoland cashmere 4 ply
 Blue socks are in Misti Alpaca worsted
the pattern works in different size, type of yarns perfectly.
