Sweaters and Sock Monkeys



Well, I finally got a pic of Leroy in his seemless sweater. He's grown of course so the sleeves fit him perfectly but the waist had to be extended.

The second pic is of my Blythe girl with her new sock monkey. I came up with the idea a while ago and finally did something about it.

Update!


Well I finished the legwarmers I was working on. In all honesty I only wore leg warmers once back in the 80s... I'm not entirely sure why anyone ever considered them sexy. It's probably due to that Flashdance thing. But I certainly think they will be useful when I'm out in service, it's getting a mite nippy out there.

Oh yes, these were knit on the red Knifty Knitter loom to 21 inches. Then I circular knit 6 rows of ribbing at the ends in size 8 needles so the end wouldn't roll up on me. :)

Knitting at Amber's




Well, I showed up late but I made it. Here's a few pics of current projects. I'm trying to make a bear for Savanna but I'll put up some pics of that when I'm further along. ;)
