I know it's not terrible, but I'm not happy with it either. And I know things will not get any better when winter comes and there are only a few hours of daylight most days. I've been wanting to build one of those DIY lightboxes for a while, but have not found a cardboard box big enough. Then, while I was rummageing through the various places I keep knitting supplies, looking for a spesific circular needle (no, I did not find it), it hit me. I CAN USE THIS!
THIS!
Like this:
So, here's booties and socks for you!
Saartjes booties in Regia 8-ply
Baby cable, Better than booties baby socks by Ann Budd
(ok, say that three times, fast...)
Lanett yarn
Baby booties on two needles, from Knitting on the Net. Regia 6-ply.
(converted to be knit in the round, so it's five needles after all)
It's a nice gift for a cute little baby boy I think!
And I managed to use up a bit of all my various leftover sock yarns.
And after that I took what had been in that newspaper basket and frogged it, because I did not like it at all!

What a cool light box!
The booties and socks are a perfect gift for a baby boy.
Nice booties and cool box!
Very resourceful! And wonderful booties!
Necessity is the mother of invention indeed! Great idea for the light box :)
Adorable baby knits, as usual... I finaly pulled out my sock leftovers last night to start some booties for my little one. I followed a general pattern and can't believe how TINY the newborn size is!!!
