New Blog~

I've started this blog to document my many different projects and to keep track of patterns and yarns. Most of my projects are knit, but I'm sure some sewing and general crafts will make an occasional appearance. I am trying to use up some of my extensive yarn stash, and I have TONS of new babies coming, so I'm feverishly trying to make some cute little baby gifts! There are so many people pregnant right now!
First on the plate is a pair of longies I finished knitting last week. I used Cascade wool and size 7 dpn for the entire piece (no circulars). I used the Cargo Pants pattern from knitty - http://www.knitty.com/ISSUEsummer05/PATTcargo.html but did not include the pocket. This pair was made size large around and size medium in length. They are light blue and were given to a friend. Sorry no pic, I forgot to take one before sending them off! Oh, and it took just over 1 ball of the Cascade to complete them.
Now I am working on a pair of booties and matching hat from the remaining Cascade wool. I promise to update (this time with pics!) when I finish those!
