How About the Babies?

Image
All that jewelry is all well and good (and I did sell quite a few pieces at my Etsy jewelry sale!) But what about the babies? It's September 1st and that means checking the gift list for holidays. For parents and baby photographers, it also means holiday photos. For years now I've been selling my baby Christmas hats to photographers and parents. I make these hats for newborns, babies and toddlers. Usually, I don't make things in multiples because I prefer to do one of a kind and custom work. However, these hats make people so happy that it makes me happy to knit them! They can be seen at http://www.BurryBabies.etsy.com . Photographers and parents send me photos of these all the time. Here's a little baby gallery. I've included a couple of Hannukah hats too :)

Plus - I knit a...

Another Question for the KnittingGuru - How to Make Bobbles

Image
Suzan wrote to me last night asking about how to make a mini-bobble - a stitch she read about in a pattern given online. I must say that I find MANY errors in online patterns. I guess you often get what you pay for and some designers are less careful when posting patterns than they would be if they were submitting the pattern to a publication. Therefore, Caveat Emptor (Buyer Beware)! Anyway, bobbles are usually made by knitting several times into one stitch and then immediately decreasing back to the one stitch. The pattern Suzan is attempting only has you knit three times into the one stitch -- therefore the name mini-bobble. Here's Suzan's question: Can you explain about making a mini bobble? Here are the directions: knit one, purl one, knit one all into the same stitch, (this is where I get lost). You will now have 3 stitches from ONE stitch on your right needle. (I don't understand one stitch. I am thinking I should have 3). Take the tip of the left needle and lift t...
