FO Friday
You all have been very good waiting all day to see my FOs. Hope it was worth the wait.
I made some items that were used at an LLL function. The reversible bear bib, the pumpkin hat and a wonderfully soft Malibrigo baby hat. They were among some items in the raffle.
I made my pumpkin hat with a brown top and stem. Most of the pumpkin patterns I saw had green stems and or leaves. We all know that after the pumpkin is picked the stem is no longer green.
The Malibrigo colorway is citrus. I love this yarn, it is so soft.
I can't bring myself to show the gold boa. Here is the silver one mid process on Olivia's wonder knitter. While working on both boas, I kept thinking that no self-respecting knitter would be seen knitting metallic "disco" fun fur type yarn on a wonder knitter. The things you will lower yourself to do for your kids. The boas went in the 4th grade "girl's fun basket".
The two baby hats for the 2nd grade "baby boy basket". The hat on Diego is a newborn
These are two of the dishcloths that went to the kindergarten kitchen basket. I did my first crocheted edge on the dishcloth below. It is a picot edge.
Those of you on Ravelry have seen a few of these already.
Great FO's Sonya!! The pumpkin hat is too cute
ReplyDeleteOMG that pumpkin hat is too darn cute!
ReplyDelete(I love LLL!!!!!) And I even love the boa!
Now no making fun of me and those damn boas.
ReplyDeleteOh, that is a great pumpkin hat! I'm also loving the citrine Malabrigo.
ReplyDeleteI love the malabrigo and pumkin hat -- you have been a knitting fool! And a great use for the metallic fun fur -- I confess to having a few balls of this myself!
ReplyDeleteYour FOs look great!!!! You have been busy. AND you are such a great mom for going to all this trouble for your children's school projects. Great job.
ReplyDeleteAwww... so cute!!!!!! Esp the pumpkin hat & bear bib!
ReplyDeleteWow! Look at you! My favorite fo's are the pumpkin & malabrigo hats and the reversible bib! Great job!!

ReplyDeleteyou busy bee! all the pics worked except the boa which now i really want to see! sounds like i project i would do LOL, metallic and on a wonder knitter :D oh yeah, i have to actually knit to do that!
ReplyDeleteBusy is right! I've enjoyed catching up on your posts.
ReplyDeleteLove the dogs.
You have been a very busy bee! What great stuff, although I am partial to the pumpkin hat. You're not the only one who humiliates herself with yarn for the sake of the kids. My niece just asked me to make her a lime green and pink poncho - the only yarn in those colors that I can find at this time of year is Red Heart. Oh well, I guess I can endure it for her!
ReplyDeleteCute stuff! Love the models! Esp Diego! (now i have that dumb resue pack song in my head)
