what I am currently working on!
First up is Brian's hat. Not quite finished yet- I need to weave in the ends and put a tassle on the top, but I think that it turned out pretty good. I alternated knit stripes with stockingette stripes. In hind-site, this was a bad idea, as stockingette takes more yarn than had I just done the alternating stripes in perl. Oh, well.
The next picture is a pair of longies for Ellie for the fall. They are super long, I think that the inseam before the cuff is about 8 inches, then the cuff adds another two inches, so a 10 inch inseam in all. But, since the cuff will keep the legs up, she will be able to wear them for a long time! They do, however, have an uncanny resemblance to hammer pants! Love love love this yarn, though! Once again, it is from my friend at Mamazluv creations on Hyena Cart. Seriously, she does great things. I think that she is also opening a second shop just for her yarn, called Anticipation!
Lastly is my current work in progress. Another pair of longies for the fall, this yarn is Horton from Bugsnuggers yarn, also on Hyena Cart. I just started these yesterday, so only have the waist and a little of the body done so far. I am liking the colorway, though for some reason it isn't exactly what I was expecting. It looks a little patriotic to me, though in a sorta girly, pink way! Not a bad thing, just not what I was expecting. We will see how it goes, pooling wise. I have two balls of this, so I can always alternate rows if I need to.
