Bicycle Set Collab

Did a collab with my friend Jenn of Buttercup Mama ... she sewed up a swing top in the cute vintage bicycle fabric.....and I did these.....

They will be stocking on Congfu next week and I will post more pics later :)

Bicycle, complete with basket and flowers.....



Really cute picot edging adds just the perfect girly touch....



And my favorite detail......bluebells on the drawstring.....

Summer Sun Scrappy Capris


These were so much fun......I absolutely love doing scrappies. You never know what you are going to get :)

Most of these scrappies are Cestari Super Fine, with some BFL thrown in for good measure. I tried to stick with yellows, oranges and greens for a summer time feel. Trimmed out in Spring Green and a ruffly cuff, these are the perfect summer capris.

Some (but not all) of the colorways included are: Atticus by Laines Magnifiques, Retro Metro by Laines Magnifiques, Florida and some Yarnoodles scraps I purchased from her Hyena Cart.

Little Boy's Love Pockets

Planning this custom was so much fun!!! The mama sent me some Peace Fleece (great cause, check them out)....and we cooked up the idea for some pockets. Little boys love putting their treasures in their pockets and little boys love frogs and snails......so here is our creation!!







Congfu Stripes Stocking

This stocking was so much fun!!! Stripes all the way down the page!! All knitted on Cascade 220....I really wanted to list some affordable shorties for the summer time!! And affordable shorties mean no worries about mud puddles and ice cream cones :)

Still looking for a pair of small affordable shorties? The smalls are both still available!!!













Bella's Custom

I don't usually take multi-pair orders....but this mama was so sweet and I didn't want to make her choose :). So we did all three! They are all knitted on Cascade 220 and are ruffly and girly for a sweet little girl!!! Her daddy is a huge Jeff Gordon and Jimmy Johnson fan....and who isn't a fan of 1981?





Darkside Auction Winner

Last week on Congfu I auctioned a custom pair of Darkside shorties......the mama that won was so fun to work with and I loved every second of it!!!! We used Cascade 220 and she chose small rainbow stripes for the legs and a rainbow drawstring.....can't wait to see action shots of these!!!



SugarBubbie Halter Dress

One of my favorite things that I have knit....ever!!!! It is the SugarBubbie Halter dress pattern, available here

Easy, great pattern to work and I used SugarBubbie yarn as well. MacKensie's Rainbow colorway on Organic Cotton, perfect for a summer dress!!










Beep Beep

I love the little cars fabric and was so lucky to have scored a skein of 'Lil Cars on Purewool 3 ply by WSK. It is gorgeous and I love how it knitted up. Added some cargo pockets for my pocket loving little man :)
