So, it's been a while. And no, I never finished the socks...or a single sock, but I have more important things to do now. It's time to start making some baby things, folks! I have quite a few projects on the agenda for the upcoming weeks, including a boatload of cloth diapers. But I already got a few knit projects done and ready to show. None of these have been washed or blocked yet, but they look nice enough as they are, so here are some pictures...

First up, 2 sleepsacks. I didn't really follow a pattern for these, so I hope they work out. They are both made with Purewool, I can't remember the colorway of the one on the left, bought it years and years ago, but it's single-ply and super soft. The one on the right is 3-ply Mesto.



Next are two pairs of longies, both made with 3-ply Purewool. On the left is a newborn pair in Biarritz and on the right is a small pair in Tiatucura. I'm not thrilled with the heavy gold hue of the yellow or the pooling in the body of these, but they'll be useable.


I'm putting these up last because they're my favorite. :) A newborn pair of shorties in 3-ply Purewool in Firmament. Love these!!!


That's it for the time being! I'm used to pulling out the knitting needles in my free time, it's going to be weird sitting at the sewing desk for a few weeks. I have some really cute diapers to make though, so hopefully I'll have pictures of those up soon too. Like I've said before, I work so much better with a deadline. :)
