I do love felt; it's definitely my kind of sewing material. I think coming up with boy embellishments though is a little trickier, at least for me apparently. I went through a few different ideas before deciding on this one and am quite fond of the final result. (Convinced myself I did not need to keep this pair for "future what if".) I used Heather Bailey's great Bitty Booties pattern and got to rummage through my vintage buttons and use some of my vintage ric rack too.
The rest of the weekend was a determined dash to finish the Circum nav cardi- and I did! It's currently blocking and will be ready for the Guild's show and tell and some finished photos soon.




Awww! Booties! I love the felt too, it never frays! These are precious.
tee hee! and who are these for? :)
Super cute!
I love the stitching on the edges, so cute!
I've been thinking about those mini circs a lot...where did you get them? I'm determined to order some for the sleeves I'm about to knit!
Those are super cute but still great for a little boy! I like, i like!
Those are adorable - I think I might have to make a pair (although whenever I make anything baby related I can't bear to part with it and wind up keeping it for my "future what ifs"). :)
Those are so sweet!
Oh, the bootie is so cute that having a red button on the centre.
Those are tooo adorable!
Those are really darling! Impeccable as well! I also like the stitching at the edge--it adds a bit of interest and looks like it belongs. There's no chance of the lucky wearer feeling emasculated :>
the ric-rak is the perfect touch!!!!
oh, very cute! love the ric-rak detail - very nice
Wow I am loving those botties!!! I just downloaded the pattern because I love them so much. I think you did an excellent job with the boy version. I think boys are so much harder to craft for....too picky :P
