Anyway.. M (my godmother) procured me two, 200 yard skeins of tan and brown alpaca yarn from a farm in Haven, KS. Now what oh what am I going to do with this lovely yarn? Well I'm going to bring you my very first pattern that's what.
I present to you my very first knitted pattern. Below is the ravelry pattern link for my new creation S's Snuggle Sack, inspired by my gifted yarn. If you're not a member yet, please oh please sign up. This is probably the single greatest resource for knitters and crocheters in the universe, second only to your local yarn store. Yes I know.. I'm charging a $1.50 for it, I figure if I make any money at all from this it will go into a little savings account for the little future babe. Now on to the back story.
R and I have been planning our future and a bebe is in the plan in a few years, so I've decided to make some gender neutral things to pack away for when the time comes. The carseat blanket was the first to be mafb (made/make ahead for baby).
M told me to make myself something nice, but I just couldn't resist a opportunity to mafb again. Please let me know if you find any errors in the pattern, it is my first so I welcome the input.
Also, in an effort to practice my patter writing skills I wrote up the pattern to a chemo beanie I made for a co-worker. It's a free pattern and you can download the pdf below. I hope you enjoy my designs. I'm really getting into this. Hopefully I can create more.download now
