4 row stripes

Vroom vroom - baby Milo



So I wanted to test drive this Milo pattern in fingering. I thought I'd try the 3yrs to aim for a newborn/3mth size. I think I did alright. Although my last baby was 10lb2oz. If this baby is the same, then he won't last long in it! Still, it's cute.

Striiiiiipes



Since I had some leftover Blue Suzanne I decided to make these socks too. Just a simple top down construction using the FLK heel which has become my go to.

Skew



I've been wanting to make Skew socks for zonks. Particularly because of the unusual construction. So I used a CDH skein of Blue Suzanne and they worked out great!

Who me? Stripes?



This I've had in mind for a while. I think it turned out pretty well. They were finished before I found out I was preggers so the nausea hadn't set in yet.
