More Knitting

Rainbow Cars Romper with handmade polymer clay buttons, stocked on my Hyenacart...

...with matching sun hat!

A couple Ribbies on their way to their new home!

I've also been dyeing some wool!  I really enjoy this and I am sure you will see more colorways soon!!

And finally, I tested some wool for Dear Husband in their "Easter Egg" colorway.  Here is the result of my knitting!  Butterfly Capris in cestari fine will be stocking on my Hyenacart July 15th.

Here is a little preview of the Molly Bubble Romper I will be stocking on the 15th as well.  I am planning on adding a matching headband or sunhat and maybe booties...we shall see!

As for me, we have been having awesome hot summer weather here!  We finally got our pool set up and went for a nice late night swim last night.  My daughter has already asked to go for a swim this morning, but now it is raining.  As soon as we set the pool up, the nice sunny weather disappears!  I hope your summer is going great!

A few customs and The Ribbie Pattern Released!

So this set started out as a Molly Bubble Romper, but I was running out of colorway, so I stopped knitting once it was the perfect length for a shirt and started a matching soaker.

I embroidered a flower on the shirt and a butterfly onto the bum of the soaker.

This next ribbed gusset soaker was knit in colorway "Mint Night" by Purewool and is off to a very special customer

~~~~~~

So I have had m-a-n-y requests for the pattern for my one size soaker...The Ribbie. It is knit in ribbing so as to be super s-t-r-e-t-c-h-y and to allow it to last a long time...hopefully birth until potty training! The ribbing also allows for extra protection in the wet zone, making for a truly bulletproof design! I am currently testing on known heavy wetters...results to come.

I have tested the final product on babies as small as 10 lbs (3 months) and as large as 50 lbs (5 years). My pattern testers were great, and with their help I was able to release the pattern for sale.

You can purchase the pattern from my Etsy or Hyenacart stores or you can purchase it through the "Buy Now" button below (you do not need to be a member of Ravelry to purchase the pattern). This is the personal pattern only. If you would like to sell items made from this pattern, you can purchase the seller's license here.
