Green Diaper Cover / Soaker, NB (knitting)

Used a 100g ball of Knit Picks WoTA almost EXACTLY. I was really pushing it with the leg cuffs, but I just barely made it. Next time I will use a complementary color on the waistband and leg cuffs – which also means I can get longer legs too.

It has been lanolized, and repels water (even with what looked like it was a too-loose weave with the pattern gauge)!

Now to sew on a button for the umbilical snap-down >.<

Button has been sewn, and it’s officially done!

This newborn sweater surprised me by just BARELY working up using just a single 100g ball of Knit Picks Mighty Stitch.

Took me a while to finish because I had to wait for my US6 and US8 DPNs to arrive.

A less wintery version of cat ears for my RedditGifts Colors 2016 match, in her favorite color (yellow).

I started this in the round on my new KISS SG loom, but frogged it after finding purling too tedious for the garter stitch. I cast the yarn on straight needles instead and it’s working up much faster.

I cast on 20 stitches of light weight/3 yarn, which ended up being almost 4” across. I intend to seam it into a tube so I can insert a 1” elastic after adding ears.

Kitty Hat - RedditGifts Colors 2016 (knitting)

I started this project without swatching, and ended up with a hat that was WAY too wide. So, using that mistake as my swatch, I started over with a much better fitting hat.

The goal is to make a square shaped hat and stitch triangles in the corners for “ears”, so when the hat is worn it looks like kitty ears.

They are meant to match my Kitty Paws project.
