<\/a>My camera’s back, so let’s get caught up!<\/i><\/p>\n

Pattern:<\/b> “Fuzzyfeet” by Theresa Vinson Stenersen from Knitty.com<\/a>
\nYarn:<\/b> Lamb’s Pride Worsted in M05 Onyx<\/a> and Noro Kureyon<\/a> in colorway 52
\nNeedles:<\/b> size 10 1\/2 (6.5mm) 16″ circular (2 circs for toe decreases)<\/p>\n

Notes:<\/b> Well, I’ll say this: I got a lot of knitting done in the hospital waiting room. The Jayne hats flew by with no problem. I can do those in my sleep. But I was distracted by family and concern and fouled up the toe on these not once but twice. The first time, I carried the body of the foot too long before decreasing, so I un-knitted back to the proper point. The second time, I forgot that I’d made the toe on the first one strictly in black, so I striped the second one up to the end. I ripped back and re-knitted it to match the first.<\/p>\n

<\/a>However, these did give us something to talk about. One aunt liked the way these looked so much she asked about commissioning some for Christmas gifts for relatives. Unfortunately, this pattern cannot be used for profit. She’s dear family, though, so I’ll see what I can do for her as a gift.<\/p>\n

Everyone who saw me knitting these said, “you know, the stripes aren’t the same color.” I know, it’s deliberate. I think it adds some nice visual interest. I was more concerned with how the Kureyon and Lamb’s Pride were going to felt. LP felts much faster than Kureyon. However, it only took one trip through the washing machine for these to felt to exactly the point I wanted. They fit perfectly.<\/p>\n

I’ve made many of these for others, but this is the first pair I’ve made for myself. I’m very happy with how they turned out.
