I've got a new addiction, Debbie Bliss Baby Cashmerino yarn! It's so lovely to work with, all soft and silky and I'm loving the smallness of baby patterns! I've finished two pairs of the simple baby booties, very simple and quick, the only thing I wonder about is how they'll fit and if they're comfortable, I need a baby to try them on!
Next up is a hat to match, again in the neutral cream, again another simple pattern, all stocking stitch.
The pattern is from the Baby Cashmerino 2 pattern book, which I got from eBay last week, it has some great small simple projects, I'd like to try a cardigan at some point.
I've also completed the cotton DK hat from Claire Montgomerie's book 'Easy Baby Knits', the pattern was really easy but I'm not sold on the yarn, it was like knitting with string! I'm going to give it a wash to see if it softens up as it seems quite heavy and rigid for a baby item.
Now all I need is for the recipients to actually arrive! Fingers crossed for the mums.
