Pretty Little Britches!!


I just love how these turned out!! Alison's Siamese Cat longies (dyed by Itty Bitty Kntties) for her little girlie! I'm knitting up a headband to match tonight, and then these will go out to her!

Oh, and remember the sweet little Colibri II newborn longies? I recently got to see an action pic of the tiny newborn I made them for, and it was adorable! Such a sweet baby boy...his mama and I will work out more trades, I'm sure! :)

Oh, and one more thing...

I'm going to be part of an upcoming Congo on Hyenacart! We are called "The Whole SHEbang", and I will primarily be doing jewelry (with a knitted here, yonder & there). We have a wide range of items that will be available, and have some awesome collaborations planned!

We're gearing up for a grand opening on November 19th; I will post a link as soon as we have one!

AND, I have a new "name", in honor of this blog! My new "store" is called "Three Boy Mama". I recently did a trade with an awesome graphically-inclined mama, Stephanie of JuJuBean Boutique on HC, who created my logo for me!

Another "Been Awhile"! Hats, hats, and britches...

Wow, it's been a LONG time (10/11/07 was when I started this draft; now it's 11/07/07!)!! This'll be mostly pics; I've knitted quite a bit of stuff since last time.

I've done up several hats, including a couple of hats for a little tiny new baby boy that one of our couple friends had (little Tyler James!). One or two for Logan (one of which I will NOT post a pic, because it looks like a beanie right now, till I can pick up stitches along the ribbing & add another couple inches, LOL). Then three more pairs of britches; Dawn's, Katie's (which I got an AWESOME bag & wallet in trade for), and Jen's first pair.

Without further ado, pics of more FFOs (finally finished objects)...they include hats made from Bernat Blacklites, Dashing Dachs Crabby on aran BFL, and Artyarns Supermerino; and longies made from aran BFL dyed by Soleil Fleur and Paton's Classic in Wedgewood. :)

Spam, spam, spammity-spam...

I am part of a congo on Hyenacart called Stolen Time Creations. Along with me are Sue of Got Ewe Covered/Legacy Knitting, Meredith of Rainbow's End Designs, LaRee of LaRee's Candles, and Ruthann of Queen of Creativity.

We are stocking today! Sue is stocking some cute, cute woolies. Meredith is stocking some awesome diaper sets, and a few other mama-type things. LaRee is stocking candles, and a sweet little tart burner that I may have to snatch up myself, LOL! Ruthann is sitting this one out. I am stocking stitch markers, cell phone dangles, and some bracelets & earrings. I'm going to add a few things that won't preview, as well, like a custom stitch marker set, and possibly a mama necklace. :)

Check us out!

New Things...

You might notice a new page element over to the left of this post. It's a "Currently on the needles" list, for keeping track of what's on now, what's next, progress...I will try to also update the blog with progress pics as I can, though most pics will remain finished objects instead. Keep in mind that I am an ADD knitter; I like to have several things going at once, and get more done that way (as odd as that sounds, LOL).

You can email me (or pm me on Diaperswappers, if that's where we are in contact) anytime for progress updates on your items!

:o) Back to the needles...

A couple more finished britches!



Okay, I've been working on the ones with ...a time to dye yarn for awhile (Island of Innocence colorway; lovely reds, yellows, blues, and browns), and finally, they're done! My first attempt at alternating skeins while knitting; it came out just fine. There are few little pulled spots in the back, but I had a rhythm going by the time I did the legs, and they turned out well. The second pair (with green trim) is Dashing Dachs' new fall colorway Matvey the Cat. I was lucky enough to score a lottery spot to get this; it is scrumptious! Their Stallion organic merino is luscious and soft, and creates such a nice drapey fabric when knitted.

Now on to the pants for the trade with Katie...I had to finish up Matvey to get my 7/12" needles freed up so I could start the legs on those! :o)
