That pic gives you the general idea though! The pattern is just the "grandma's favorite" dishcloth pattern, just using bulky yarn! It's coming along nicely, although I think i am going to have to sew my ends down with sewing thread... I am not good at weaving ends in! (And there is a bunch!) I haven't been working on it much lately though, either because I have been too busy or not in the mood for knitting, or I've been distracted by other projects! For instance....
Baby booties for my coworker! His wife is expecting any day now, and Cynthia had already knit an adorable bonnet, (ahem, Cynthia, you need to blog!) so I decided to make matching booties and make it a set! They were well received, and I hope everything goes well with their (third!) little girl's arrival next week.
Pattern: Saartje's booties, a seamless version, Rav link here: Seamless Saartje's Booties
Yarn: Dale of Norway Baby Ull on US2 needles
I've also been shamed into finally casting on for my nephew Holden's tie sweater...
My SIL knit one ALREADY for Cash (we ordered all the yarn at the same time), so I can't let the poor kid go too long without his very own matching one! (Big brother Cash's is a tan sweater with a green tie, Holden's will be the dark blue above with a mossy green tie).
OK bedtime! Hope everyone had a nice weekend!
