One Little Bootie…
I finished one of the the booties on Saturday night:
And then I finished the other on Tuesday night… or was that Monday?
(sorry about the crappy pic)
And JRH liked them… maybe he loved them a little bit, but I couldn’t tell. Alexander is probably about to take off walking, but I figured I’d finish them up and present them anyway.
The blue project (crochet) underneath the booties is no longer. It was going to be a jacket for SRD, but the LB Microspun yarn started to annoy me, and I couldn’t imagine going much further with it. To bad though, it is a beautiful color. Maybe I can do a knitting project with it. I did a little test swatch with US8 needles and that didn’t look to bad. Much easier to work with the many, many strands of beautiful periwinkle yarn with the kitting needles rather than the hook.
I hope the blog controversy gets resolved in a manner that makes both parties happy - or at least able to Stitch ‘n’ Bitch without acrimony. It’s making me kind of sad. I want everyone to feel better and I want to be able to fix it, but I can’t.

The booties look great!
I have to say that I’m not a big fan of LB Microspun for knitting. I imagine it’s better than using for crochet, but when I knit with it the plies would come undone and it was just annoying as all get out. I know lots of people who have used the yarn, though, so maybe it was just my patience level?
