"Eden" Braided shorties

The "Eden" colorway is one of my all time favorites! It's such a nice girly color! And with spring coming it was the perfect time to knit this! The mama asked for flared legs for her little girl. "Eden" is dyed by Lamar at "A Time To Dye" who stocks on the "Tiny Lady Cooperative" on Hyena cart. You can find her yarns here: http://hyenacart.com/tinyladycooperative/ This skein was dyed on Cestari Superfine Merino. I really enjoy knitting with this yarn. It is a cottony soft type yarn. Many knitters seem to not care for the Cestari so much as they say it drags on their knitting needles but I've not found this to be the case with using Addi knitting needles. Cast-on and bound-off in the main colorway.

Amber Beck Fiber Arts Hand-spun Longies

This is the most stunning yarn! It is hand-spun by Amber Beck Fiber Arts in the "Cameron" colorway! This was such an honor to knit for this mama. I hope that she likes them and the little surprise I included (keyring longies made from this yarn - she said it was custom spun/dyed for her little boy and named after him so I thought she might like to have a mini-keepsake of her special yarn). These photos are not the best - it had been snowing the day before and we just did not have good lighting until sunset so the light was at a funny angle. The pictures of the yarn are far more accurate. Hopefully I can get a decent pic in the morning before these get mailed off.



This is the yarn when I received it in the mail! Stunning!



It was amazing to see this yarn transform - the pictures above of the completed item simply do not do the yarn justice - here is a close-up picture so that the true beauty can be seen.

Gracecody Longies with action pictures

Knit with Cestari Fine Merino in the "Dusty Orchid" colorway. One of my alltime favorite colors! This yarn is so cottony to knit with! And such a pleasure to knit with such a beautiful color! This was the first time I had done the plaited cable. I was quite thrilled with how they turned out! I think my own daughter will need a sweater/pant set like this for next winter!



This mama was so sweet to knit for - she was kind enough to allow me to save off the pictures to post here and in my album. Isn't her little girl a cutie pie! She requested an extra long inseam with a longer cuff so that her little one could wear the longies next year and this year with the cuff rolled up.

Scrappy Action Shots

The momma that the Scrappy XO Longies were knit for was kind enough to allow me to share action photos of her little girl wearing them! Thank you K! Isn't her little girl a cutie!

XO Scrappy Longies

Custom Knit with XO cable down the side of each leg.

I am quite excited with how these turned out! This is the first scrappy pair of longies I've ever knit. I wish they were staying for my dd! LOL However, they are on their way to a very cute little girl!

This was a great project as I learned what method of joining yarn I most prefer when there are so many color transitions!
