Other things I did this weekend was knit a pair of baby booties. I don't know who for or why, but the pattern was just too cute to let slide by without trying. So here are the specs:
NAME: T-Strap Booties
SOURCE: KnitSimple, Spring/Summer 2007 issue
YARN: Debbie Bliss Baby Cashmerino (left over yarn from the Bazaar Socks I made awhile ago)
NEEDLES: Size 6 circulars and a G/6 crochet hook
Another project I finished this weekend is a felted backpack. I started it in December or January and knitted it all up, but kept forgetting about it when I was over at Mary's. I have a front load washer, which doesn't allow the option of felting. So finally this weekend I managed to remember it and got the pieces felted and all sewn together. Take a look.
NAME: Checks & Spirals Backpack
SOURCE: Felt It! by Maggie Pace
YARN: Philosopher's Wool and Cascade 220
NEEDLES: #11 26" circulars and #11 double points for the I-Cord
I also finished a pair of socks that I started about three months ago and went to the farmer's market and got some beautful Sweet Peas, Larkspur, and Daisies to pretty up my dining room table. And I spoke with my dearest Matthew on the phone for a very long time and enjoyed every second of it! (Picture me smiling big and blushing!!!) And I played a significant amount of Doom 3. There is some satisfaction in blasting demons away. LOL! Even if only in a video game! :)
