Michelle's Bib

This is the camouflage bib I created. (notice the fun seed stitch/stockinette combo) I just bought the velcro to sew on to the strap. I wanted to get a picture before I wash it just in case it gets ruined!! The neck hole ended up huge, hopefully it will fit my nephew.


Congratulations, Factory Girls!

Congrats on joining the world of blogging! Michelle, thanks for putting up the pictures (boy, am I happy I cut my hair)!

I hit a snag with the toiletry bag when I needed size 13 double pointed needles. I was going to attempt it with circulars, but the decreases made it just too small. Consider this an appeal to my fellow Factory Girls: size 13 dpn's, anyone?

I'm back to the infamous Kreuz baby blanket, but I've switched yarns (taking the needles from 5's to 10's and decreasing the stitch count by 13). I think it's a much better plan.

Field Trip to The Knitting Nest

Our group met at the Knitting Nest http://www.theknittingnest.com/ for it's Grand Opening on October 13th. We missed Shelby but we discovered a great shop that is convenient for us "southies".

Here is Kristen working furiously on her toiletry bag (how did the felting turn out?) and Gayla trying out the new yarn & needles she just purchased.

Here is Michelle trying out her new rainbow yarn. Maybe it will be a scarf.... maybe wrist warmers.

Did anyone win the door prize we signed up for?
