So, I felted the baby booties for my nephew. I think they might actually fit him now.
However, they were supposed to have ties through eyelets near the top with pom poms on the ends so you could tie them on so they won’t fall off. The eyelets I knit in closed up during felting.
As I see it, I have two options. The first is to try to re-create the eyelets and thread the ties through (I already crochet-chained the ties and made one of the four pom poms for the ends). The second is to forget about the ties and just hope they don’t fall off as is. What do you think I should do?
Meet Mojo!
This weekend saw not one, but two life-changing additions!
First is Mojo,
our new puppy!
He’s a Rottweiler/? mix.
Smiley Dog Rescue, who we adopted him from, thinks he’s a Rottweiler/Shepherd mix, but I think he kind of looks like a lab, although he does have some black on his back and tail.
Here he is with the other two dogs! They’re still learning to get along…
Secondly, after once again spinning on Kristi’s wheel (a Lendrum), this time while Kristi and Siena hung out on the couch…
Kristi and I went up to Carolina Homespun (where she got her wheel) and I bought a SPINNING WHEEL!!!!!! YAY!!!!!
It’s a Majacraft Little Gem 2!
AND, the dogs even let me spin! without trying to eat my wheel or my fiber!! Mojo was a little scared at first, but then he relaxed…
And here’s my hand-dyed Bluefaced Leicester homespun!!!! Remember when I dyed this roving??
