My original Nike+ sensor finally died and since it was actually sewn inside the case, I just threw out my knit cozy with the sensor. I just got my replacement sensor about a week ago and decided today was the day to knit up a new cozy for it so I could attach it to my running shoes!
I just used a bit of scrap sock yarn I had and size 3 needles.
CO 16 stitches and divide it over 2 dpn.
Knit around until the cozy is as tall as the sensor when you fit it inside. (obviously in the below picture I still had a few more rows to do!)
Before you sew the sensor inside the cozy, use your cast on tail to sew the bottom seam together and then weave the end inside the case.
Fit the sensor right inside the cozy.
Use kitchener stitch to stitch the top closed.
Weave the tail inside the cozy.
Then CO 4 stitches and knit in garter stitch for about 2".
Sew the ends of this piece together to form a circle.
Sew this looped piece diagonally onto the back of your cozy, for your laces to run through.
Attach to your shoe and go for a run!

Watermelon Flower
A friend of mine from StrollerFit asked if I would knit up a blanket for a baby girl that is going to be born in June. How could I say no???
I saw these colors and I totally thought of Watermelon which I thought was perfect for a summer baby!!!
I once again used Debbie Bliss' Striped Baby Blanket pattern.
And then, since there was a bunch of green yarn left over, I decided I'd make an upside down daisy hat to match the blanket!

For Teresa
I just realized I never posted the rest of what I knit up for Teresa. I wanted to make sure she got her package before I put up pictures and I think she got it a couple weeks ago.... :)
So, besides the pom-pom bonnet that I already posted, I made her a baby blanket, a pointed baby hat, and I gave her the red booties I knit up.
