the knitting

I've not been blogging a lot - i guess b/c i've been busy knitting.
the photo above is 2 colors of Mini-Mochi, Violet & Fern.

this is a toddler knee sock with Intense Rainbow mini-mochi.
this is strawberry lime rainbow and fern. i enjoyed this one so much (the strawberry-lime has some gorgeous colors) that i am doing a 2nd one [LOL, unusual for me]
here's a closeup of the leg - again 2 colors MM
this is my DH's foot modeling Man's mini-mochi sock made with neptune and tapestry.
this is my swirling cables hat, made with 2 colors of Kaya.
this is my "inauguration bag" - made with 2 colors of Kaya - peace love nature.

another shot of the bag

the lace sleeve i didn't keep. this is mini-mochi Flame. i found no hassle in frogging the lace if one is gentle and it didn't even take a lot of patience. the only part i lost was my "knitted cast on" - that was very hard to frog.

Amazing! let me just say....AMAZING! I'm so glad I found your blog. And I found it through a pattern hunt for my grandaughter, Temple, who turns one in April. I love the lacy toddler sweater. I found it this morning and went out in search of the yarn in the pouring rain. I was so eager to get started. Well, long story short, I couldn't. So I am making it in Ty Dy socks, color blue pansy. This will be beautiful too, on my little one. But I am a barely intermediate knitter, and I am confused by the sl...12?...and then do I pass each of the 12 over the nexy knitted stitch? And, what kind of needle do you use for lacy things? I have addi turbos and I feel as if the point is not sharp enough. HEEEEEELP?????? xo Marianne
