The Woodland in Spring set is almost done, just the elastic waist to put in and the socks to knit up. I have a skein of Selkie by Mosaic Moon to knit into another newborn set for the same customer so I will do the socks and waistbands at the same time. I imagine both sets will be ready to ship by late next week.



I am waiting for some cream 3ply purewool to use as the trim with the Selkie newborn set so I worked on the Barrel of Monkeys longies as part of a trade. I plan to work on the legs a bit today.

Just got back from a weekend away so I have more pictures to add, but this is the picture from Friday. I finished the Woodland in Spring longies, during the trip I weaved in my ends and grafted the crotch gusset -- I haven't put the waistband in yet (forgot to put my elastic in my knitting bag for the trip). More pictures to come!

As promised the start of the Woodland in Spring longies -- this is the first time I have knit this colorway and I am very happy with the way it is working up. I am so glad I ordered more of this colorway when I had a chance! In this picture I am just beginning the gusset I imagine I will be either done with the longies tomorrow or close to it. But for now I am heading to bed early (as hard as it is with the great Women's Beach Volleyball game going on -- go USA!)

The Mosaic Moon Kettle Dyed Rainbow with black longies and hat are done and drying right now. I snapped this picture just before I washed them, when they are dry I will thread the drawstring through.


I also started another newborn set this time on Mosaic Moon Woodland in Spring -- pictures to come soon!

I began work on a small set yesterday. These are done on Mosaic Moon's Kettle dyed rainbow with black on BFL aran. The colors remind me so much of the Arabian Nights colorway by MM that I knit about a month ago -- there are just fewer jewel tones in it and a bit more purple. Very pretty this set should be really pretty when it is done. It looks a bit wonky in the picture because I am just about to split for the legs.


This newborn set will be heading out today. It knit up beautifully, I ended up using some scrap cream colored yarn for the booties because I was worried I would run out -- when I finished the ties for the booties I had about 12" of yarn left! This set knit up beautifully and I hope the mama's like it!
