W.I.P. time.....

Last summer I knit up a cute yellow sweater. I just love it but there are three parts of it that I need to fix. I learned a new cast off that gives a much better, stretchy ribbing....something that will hold it's shape but stretch when needed. So I am going to fix both cuffs and the bottom edge.

I started by picking up the stitches around one cuff~

I then cut off the casted off edge and started to pull out the stitches~

I got the stitches back on the needles~

And now I am on my way. I think I am going to make the 3/4 sleeves into full length and add 2 or 3 inches to the bottom edge too. I will keep you posted on how it goes.

I also have to share with you a project that I casted on this morning. I have a good friend who is receiving a new grandbaby in a few weeks so I grabbed this book that has some really great projects in it~

I wanted something quick but cute so I picked these booties~

I wound up some cream Cascade sport and casted on...I think it's going pretty well~

I thought cream would be a good color with spring right around the corner and would go with just about any cute little outfit she will be wearing. Now to get them done in time....what are you working on?

I sure wish I knew how to knit. I have tried a couple times. I just don't get it. The booties and hat are going to be so cute.
