I haven't been posting for a bit, but that is because most of my work has been for instock items for Their Own Knitted World. I do have a few items to share though.

I just finished these shorties last night. They were pictured about 2 weeks ago and I was waiting for trim, when the trim came I wasn't happy with the way it looked at the ends of the legs so I quickly frogged the shorties and started over and I am very happy with how they came out. Hopefully the mama and little cutie they are for agree! The cord has been finished for these and they are drying so they should be ready to ship in the next few days!







This is the set I am currently working on, a pair of capri's for the June stocking at Their Own Knitted World dyed by Southwest Spectrum this is Prairie Rose on Cestari Superfine.
















Don't forget to check out the grand opening of Their Own Knitted World this Thursday at 9pm! Be sure to take a sneak peek everyday this week for lots of great free for shipping lotteries!

I haven't had much of a chance to update the blog but I have been knitting away with plenty to show.

None of these have been blocked yet. The finished shorties are all going for their wash in just a bit.
This first pair is Belladonna Retro with matching trim on BFL.

The next finished pair is Disco Baby's Uranus on BFL.


These shorties are waiting for some trim to finish them up. These are done on Sugar Bubbies Gaia Bulky in their Brodie colorway. Wonderful to knit with and the colors are so nice.


I am working on this pair in between projects. This will be part of a newborn set I am stocking at the grand opening of my new congo (stay tuned for details)! These are knit with Three Irish Girls Tierney on Galenas Merino -- perfect for a new baby. They have a cable down that side and will have some matching booties and a hat.

These are drying now and should be ready to head out the door later this week or early next week. A pair of shorties done with Mosaic Moon Elements on Targhee.

This skirty is also heading out the door this week. This is the large skirty done with Three Irish Girls Meg on Lindon Merino with Cascade trim.

And these two skirties with matching headbands will be heading out as well. I am not sure who the dyer is (will get that information and edit this post).

Just a heads up for folks I am shipping to, my youngest is pretty sick right now so getting postage printed and dropping the package off at the PO (so it gets scanned right away) may take a few days -- thank you so much in advance for being patient!

Some finished skirties that will be heading to their homes this week:

First a large skirty done with TIG Meg. I just finished this for the second time, after I blocked the first time I wasn't happy with the soaker placement (it was off center) so I frogged the soaker and re-knit it -- much happier with the placement now. It just needs a quick re-blocking and it will be heading home. Sorry for the small picture, for some reason when it is larger one of the corners is cut off.

And two newborn skirties with matching headbands -- these are so tiny and absolutely adorable!


Hopefully I can grab some better pictures before these all head out it was a bit late in the afternoon so the shadowing is bad!

Check out my Mom!

My Mom taught me the basics of knitting about 5 years ago, so she gets all the credit for what my obsession has become. If you ask my Mom, really if you ask anyone who knows my mom if she knits they would probably look a bit confused. See my Mom doesn't knit she quilts, and she quilts a lot. I convinced her awhile back to start a blog about her quilting, so go check out the beautiful work my mom does! You can find it all here: http://katahdinquilts.blogspot.com/
