I've never knit baby booties before and I think I'm now addicted. Check out how cute these are. I just finished them two days ago and decided to make a matching hat. I recently took a spinning class from Anita Osterhaug http://www.weavingtoday.com/members/Anita-Osterhaug/default.aspx and learned how to do all kinds of spinning including the kind with beads. I decided to add the yarn that I created during that class to the brim of the hat and I love the look. These would definitely fit the newborn set.
The pink yarn is Ry Cashsoft DK http://www.knitrowan.com/yarns/cashsoft-dk.aspx It's got merino, microfiber, and cashmere fibers. Perfect for baby knits.

Someday I'll write up the pattern for these and share it. That would be another new venture for me and so might take awhile.
Leave a comment if you are interested in the patterns and even if you're not interested, just say hello and tell me what city and country you're from. I had over 180 hits from Russia today and would love to hear from some (or all) of you.
Happy Weekend!

I love this hat! Anna hats are about the only item I can knit with success! Circular needles and yarn are stuffed into my travel bags with ease. I tried making a hat with beads a few months ago however it did not turn out 1/2 as adorable as yours! I love the yarn with silver pieces in it...have you seen that? cute. :)
ReplyDeletePat, who makes the yarn with silver pieces? I have never seen that.
ReplyDeleteI actually spun the beads into the yarn for this hat and then knitted with the yarn.
Keep practicing knitting with the beads, I think you can catch on.
