I've completed my biggest undertaking yet!! A gorgeous pair of knitted pants for Roman.
I am absolutely delighted with how they turned out and so is Roman. He didn't want to take them off, but I insisted because it has been quite warm of late and because I made them big enough to fit for next year, the bottoms were dragging.

I've been toying with the idea of closing off my blog, as I don't seem to have much time or brain capacity to think of things to share, but I do love joining in the Yarn Along and being connected to the "woolly" community! So I think I'll just keep posting finished projects for the time being!

Beautiful longies! I love the color choices.Keep posting your handwork! It's important to share your work with others.
ReplyDeleteStunning! Quite the undertaking indeed! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteLove them. They look so comfortable. My youngest dislikes wearing jeans, I think he would love these. Is the size age 5/6?
ReplyDeleteI agree with Erin - keep blogging your projects.
They'll be the perfect comfy pants! Yes age 5/6.
DeleteI love coming to your blog for the yarn along, so I say keep it please. Lovely woolies. I make woolies for my cloth diapered kids, and my 6 year old really wants a pair as well...I may just take that on now that I've seen how nice yours turned out.
ReplyDeleteThe yarn along is what keeps me blogging during the times of sparse posting, also. I think you should keep with it! :)
ReplyDeleteI love the longies! I want to try knitting pants for my little guys this year, I will have to check out that pattern.
