Baby Booties

At the last minute, which was yesterday, I decided to make these little booties as a baby shower gift. They are super easy and should take only a few hours to knit, unless you have six projects going at once. I decided to embellish them a little by adding the ribbon.

Downsizing

A few days ago, while browsing knitting blogs and forums, I discovered the
GoKnit Pouch. I thought this would be more convenient to carry around instead of my knitting tote bag, especially on short trips. I could tie it to my belt loop, handbag or wear it around my wrist. I was determined to order the GoKnit Pouch, until my daughter discovered these cute little pouches at a novelty store. My knock-off version cost $2.00 for the small pouch and $2.50 for the large pouch. The small pouch is made of satin and can hold a small sock project, double pointed needles and an extra ball of yarn. On Sunday, I took the larger pouch along with me to the Jinhae-si Cherry Blossom Festival. The large pouch is made of cotton and held my sweater project, circular needles, row counter and an extra ball of yarn.

Vacation Photos

My vacation was awesome! Jeju Island has definitely been blessed with friendly people, great shopping and some of the most beautiful sights on earth. The bad news is, I didn't find one skein, ball or hank of yarn. More bad news.....My carry-on yarn bag had to share space with my luggage. There was absolutely no time to knit. Well, this vacation was my most enjoyable one so far.
