But also productive! I moved to a beautiful new apartment the weekend of September 1st, so I'm going to give myself a pass on the lack of blog updates. I also have a freshly completed knitting project to show off (because I'm a ham like that).
On the basis that my boss has no idea I have a blog, I present to you:
Saartje's Bootees (as knit by me):
My boss is having his first baby, and the due date is November 1st. So I decided to make these, which I've thought were adorable for ages. They are a quick knit, though I found the strap instructions really confusing.
Yarn: Rowan RYC Cashsoft 4-Ply in Mosaic (main color) and Dive.
Needles: US 1 Clover Bamboo DPNs (It's knit flat, but I don't have straight or circular 1's, so I made do.
Yarn and buttons both came from A Good Yarn in Brookline. (I'm going to miss living 500 yards away...)
I hope they like the booties, and that they fit. And they don't unravel. I always fear so much when gifting knits.
