Baby Socks....so cute

The baby socks are so cute, they look a bit long and pointy toed, but they are probably for about a 6 month old not newborn. I may try another pair but make them shorter in the foot and a bit wider across the toe. Instead of going down to 4 stitches then graft toe, I might try 6 stitches across the toe.

I started a mohair scarf last night after finishing the second baby sock. I have to do some knitting for the Kiama Knitters Guild exhibition and sale on 18 -20 July in the Old Fire Station Gallery in Kiama.

Happy Mothers Day to all the mothers around the world, I hope you had a great day.....I did. I got some new bright pink tweetie bird pyjama's and some bright pink Betty Boo slippers. Just the thing for the Knitters Retreat "Nearly Christmas in July" at Mt Keira the end of July. This is being organised by CR&K Daisy Designs at Fairy Meadow. Just $120 for the Friday night through to Sunday afternoon, all meals included. We do some workshops, eat, knit, some drink, chat the whole time, eat, knit, eat, drink, knit.....well you get the idea. It is a great weekend, and being winter it is great to sit by the fire place while doing all of the knitting, chatting etc etc.
