Handknits for Babies- and come down on May 1st!

Hello everyone! I think it's officially Spring and I have been very busy making things for babies! My friend Nora had a little boy named Henry. Such a cute name! We've had lots of people coming in to make baby blankets by making little blocks and seaming them together. I don't think I'll ever cast on over 100 stitches to make a baby blanket again. The quilt like method that we're all doing is so fun and the result is adorable, as you can see with Victoria's blanket in the last post.

Here are a few pictures from Sunday. Angela taught a sock class and it was fun to see which yarn people chose. Gina picked art yarns and Holly picked Mission Falls for a boot sock. Oh to be in Maine and still be able to wear wool socks...ok, back to reality.

Here is a sweater that Angela made. I'm not sure it could even BE cuter. The flower stem is actually a cable.

Here we have Debbie, her sister, and her best friend. They had a blast in the store. Happy Birthday Willy!

Gina's socks pre-sock class. They look pretty good to me! Check out the diagonal stripe that the artyarns did...how neat.
