Summer Dress

Last time I went to the yarn store, I was going for the sole purpose of getting a new pair of size 3 needles,  Royal had broken one of my needles the night before, and I had baby booties to finish.  But when I got there, I discovered so much of my favorite yarn on sale!  Debbie Bliss' Cashmerino and then this other yarn I have found that is called BabyBoo.  Babyboo is made out of nylon and bamboo and is the softest yarn ever and it's a little shiny, and has become some of my favorite stuff.   So, needless to say, my one pair of needles became an extremely expensive pair of needles with lots of free yarn that came with it!

Last night, I finished this little summer dress for Willow out of the BabyBoo.  The pattern is out of the book, Adorable Knits for Tots.

Hearts and Stars

Finally finished up Willow's hearts and stars blanket that I made to match Jayden's. Hers is pink of course while Jayden is rocking the blues.



I also managed to knit Willow up some booties since I was on such a roll from the newborn booties.
