Booties
Thanks for your comment YarnThrower... I forgot to link to the bootie pattern I use!
It is Perfect Baby Booties, and believe me they sure are close to perfection! They do have a seam along the bottom and back (I always photograph their good side) but its really not too bad even with my crappy sewing skills. Plus with only 2 ends to weave in, I love it!!!!!
And I forgot I finished a pair of secret booties, which cannot be disclosed until I gift them to their recipient... :-)

Knitting wrap-up!
OK so here is what I have been doing this past month (besides planning the whole wedding thing and trying to buy a house)
1. Chenille washcloth for a mother's day present:
I wrapped it up real cute with a fancy lemongrass soap! Mom loved it :)
2. Cotton Baby Sweater
A cute summery cotton sweater for my little nephew :-) It still needs a button (toggle)!
3. Baby shower hat & booties - for friends of ours having a shower next weekend (what??? im done early??? no way!)
Not a bad little baby set, although the hat came out a leetle bigger than i'd hoped. Oh well, babies grow!!!!!
What I am working on now:
Well... I have some socks im knitting myself. Haven't touched those in a bit...
Otherwise...???
Time for a new project! lol
