I don't know why, but I love to knit baby socks. Whenever I have nothing to knit, they are the first thing that come to mind. They are small and portable projects that I can knit on auto-pilot and there are so many different ways to knit them. I however, seem to have an overflow of baby socks. I definitely don't need more for the baby we are soon having, but I still love and will always knit them. I will probably be like my wonderful grandma some day and have a huge bucket filled with hand-knit baby socks in all patterns and colours. I don't think this is a bad thing. I think it's the most wonderful thing ever.
After thoroughly thinking it through, I decided I should cast something new on. I have had the Kanoko Baby Pants on my Que for quite a long time and have been meaning to knit up a pair. I did just that and I think they turned out absolutely adorable !!!
Next time though, I think instead of the seed stitching around the top and booty area, I will do some fair isle. I would love to make a more 'Scandinavian' looking pair in Red and white traditional fair isle.
I cannot wait to get these on our cute little girl !!!
Oh man, I would LOVE to see your cute little one in those babies!! Those pants are so darn CUTE!! Awwwww :) Motor, you make such beautiful things for your bebe. She's so lucky to have a Mommy (and Daddy like Robert) like you- and you're ever so lucky to have *SOON* a beautiful little girl to share your life with :) I know that I am looking forward to it! -- being both an observer and participator.
ReplyDeleteThose are certainly adorable knit pants! It will be fun to see all the items you create for your baby girl. :)
ReplyDeleteCute little pants! I've never seen these before. Grandma and Grandpa are right here and leaving in the morning. We visited a yarn shop in Minneapolis and bought a couple skeins apiece that we are using for bracelets. We had a beautiful week of weather too. Do anything exciting today?
ReplyDeleteeee!! those pants are just too cute for words!
