Oh Baby Socks!!

Sorry I know it has been awhile since my last blog post. I have been crazy busy working on the site in hope to open May 1st. I received my first shipment of yarn and I couldn’t be more excited! The colors are great and the yarn is soft and gushy and to die for! I love the Alpaca! It will be difficult seeing it go....


The baby and toddler socks I just completed are absolutely adorable.... No my opinion isn’t biased... Well maybe a little. The socks are the same pattern with a simple cable stitch. I used a size 3 double pointed needle (DPN) for the toddle sock and a size 0 DPN for the baby socks. The DPNs I use are bamboo and as most knitters know size 0 is the smallest needle available. Well bamboo DPNs are not that sturdy and one of the needles broke in two. Fortunately I was more than half way finished with the sock.


I will post more pictures on Flicr and Facebook. Feel free to visit my picture gallery at

Soon as I finish posting this entry I plan to get to work on the kindle case. It is completely knitted just need to do some sewing. I have a feeling my kindle will not fit snugly in the case, I’m hopeful and it is an impromptu design I put together. I will post pictures of the finished product soon.


I hope everyone enjoys the pictures and if you want more details about the baby socks send your emails to blog@serenityyarn.com and I will be happy to send the pattern to you.


Happy knitting everyone!

Amanda
