swap-a-shop and button holes
I received my swap package from Ann of the Great Bootie Swap. Fun fun. It contained a lovely skein of Enigma yarn:
Lovely Colours
stitch markers and of course the booties!! They look huge next to my newborn ones haha. must take a comparrison shot. I was planning to give them away but I think I will keep them. I love the oriental style beads on the stitch markers too. Never can have too many of those. Yesterday my sister asked what’s the point in making stitch markers pretty if they don’t get left in the piece. Bless! She just doesn’t get it. I think she prolly will at some point the hording habit comes from all sides of the family.
I also made my first button hole! With my moms guidance via webcam. I always thought they’d be really difficult but they really weren’t. I don’t have any photos for you as I did them on scrap that I just threw away but I got a bit button hole.
I also entered a pair of my booties in the Micheal Miller Baby Bootie Contest. Not sure if I classify with my knitted version but I entered any way. Wish me luck!
