Booties part deux
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.

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 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 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 :>

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
