Babies Galore

So the baby knitting has began well actually it started about 2 weeks ago but as usual I have been horrible but I am going to try & get back on the horse yet again. First I will talk about the list I posted a last time. The Glissade  Shawl has been frogged & the yarn is going to be soaked and re-caked to use again.

I ripped it out because even with my lifeline I screwed up royally its all on me it has nothing to do with the pattern. After I get all this baby knitting done I will be casting it back on & I will get that shawl done. I  think I probably use the same yarn as before I love the color changes.

I also tried casting on the Marmalade Shawl with my WM but it seem like it was way to loose while I was knitting it. So I am going to maybe try & again or go down a needle size to see how it looks. I have to keep reminding myself that fingering weight on size 6 needles is going to be a bit wonky in the beginning.

As for what has been cast on since the last post I have 2 baby items done. I have a pair of baby socks on the needles right now & also a shawl.  I can show the baby items because the recipients don't know they are getting these items & well I don't think they even read the blog so its ok.

In the finished pile is the Owlie Sleep Sack & the Sockyarn Baby Hat.















As for new things on the needles I have started a pair of Leftover Baby socks & the Quasar Shawl by Chrissy Prange. I just cast the socks on today so I don't have a picture of them yet, but they are in the same yarn as the baby hat.

The Quasar shawl is out a yarn dyed up by a friend of mines on Plurk Nattlee. I am loving the way this shawl is knitting up. Its going to be gorgeous when it is done.
