I did it! I knit something out of my color comfort zone. I really do like colors beyond R, O, and V of ROYGBIV, but I've been knitting pretty exclusively from the former. Really there's no escaping my red routine. Do I lose points for photographing against a red background? No matter anyway, for now I'm going back to my glut of red and orange UFOs.
These Saartje's Baby Booties were knit from cotton stash remnants held together on size 4 needles. It looks like I'll even have enough to knit a second pair for another baby girl in the pipeline.
In the realm of gift knitting, I was foolish enough to think that a collection of pictures would conceal the gifts within. Two of the photos were gifts for my sister. She laughed to realize I thought she wouldn't notice, that she'd be blinded by the coordinating whole and ignore the treasures earmarked for her. Hmph, I've never been very good at keeping knitting secrets from her anyway, I just get too excited.
Kawaii (cute!!)
