A Wooly Obsession



It must be the marginally cooler weather, but I am suddenly obsessed with knitting pants for Snugglebunny. These nearly didn't eventuate since I got halfway through the SECOND leg and realised I had divided the stitches wrongly for the legs, so I had to pull it all back as far as the crotch!!! The pink is the most stunning soft yarn - 10 ply, 70% merino 30% mohair. The brown yarn is country silk and once again I added a gusset to fit her Chunky thighs :)

Those are fantastic Tigerfilly! Where do you find the patterns for these lovely longies? All mine are in 3 or 4 ply only. Then again, DH won't let me put Sam in wooley pants.

I've enjoyed browsing through your blog!

You must have a lot of patience to have to take out both legs back to the crotch because of a mistake. Everything looks great!
