Well..
On top of the Bathing Suit that I'm knitting and the Crochet Throw that I'm working on...
I'm also making a pair of baby booties!
(NO! Not for me! Come on, people!)
These are for hubby's cube-mate and his wife!
I'm not sure what they're having so I'm sticking with soft neutrals.
One skein of the Debbie Bliss Baby Cashmerino should give a pair of booties, which is nice!
Um... I'm sorry, what?
You want me to purl row 20 and row 13 together?
Sure! No prob!
(This stitch made me a lil nervous at first but it actually came out really nice!)
:)
I'm doing the Box of Booties idea from this book.
Should be cute, huh?
So teeny tiny...
I've come a long way from size 19 needles and Big & Chunky yarn for Twinkle projects...
:)
Love your blog.You knit beautifully.
ReplyDeleteHave a question. I am stymied by the directions to "pearl row 20 and row 13 together". Would you be kind enough to tell me how you did it?
Thanks so much.
@MahlerMadl:
ReplyDeleteYes! Of course! I know! I was confused too! I was like, "what are these people talkin' about!" :)
Anyway, I count rows... it just helps me to be clearer.
So, for example:
row 12 - Rep 2nd row (k to end, working k1 tbl into ea yo of previous row)
Then these are the 7 from the "Beg with a k row, work 7 rows in St st:
row 13 - k
row 14 - p
row 15 - k
row 16 - p
row 17 - k
row 18 - p
row 19 - k
row 20 = Then "Next row [P next st tog with corresponding st 7 rows below] to end"
to me that meant, purl row 20 and row 13 together.
I had a hard time seeing Row 13 but I when I did find it, I just put each purl st from Row 13 on the needle with Row 20 and then P2tog.
I hope that's helpful! Please let me know if it isn't!
Good luck and lemme know how your booties are coming along! :)
Any possibility there is a video of this somewhere cause I'm just not getting it...
DeleteOh no, I had a friend pick up the supplies for me from Singapore because there is no place to buy needles where I live. I only have straight needles. By the looks of it, I'm not going to be able to get past row 12....
