Sarrtje’s Booties, out of Brown Sheep Wildefoote for Grandbebe Next.
And my own handspun from (cleaned and carded by me) alpaca for Eldest to gift to an expectant friend.
Sweet Peasy complete with buttons, too.
And some awesome socks (Charlene Schurch’s Sensational Knitted Socks, Welt Fantastic, out of Steinbach Wolle Avtic Effekt) that I think turned out pretty cool. I didn’t match the stripes in these. It would have required ‘wasting’ what was, in my opinion, ‘too much’ yarn. So they are of a ‘wild’ variety. Which I am liking in this instance.
I have been busy as a bee. Another pair of socks has already been cast on. ButtonUp Neckwarmers are being knitted. February Baby Sweaters (EZimmermann’s idea, Rav linky) are in the works out of handspun for Christmas gifting.
And yet, strangely enough, I am not even close to running out of yarn…
It's miraculous.

I like the "random" stripes in the socks....very modern!
May we never run out of yarn, destash though we may!!!
The grandbebe booties are the cutest things! Love the socks, too. Did you know some cheapo places are selling mismatched socks now for top dollar... because they see it as a trend?!? They have no idea what handmade means!!!
Wow! You have been really busy, and everything is so gorgeous...BUT THOSE BOOTEES....they are just the cutest thing I've ever seen. You must keep this pattern, because when I finally have a grandchild, we are going to have to work out some kind of swap, because, seriously...I am going to need some of these tiny little bootees.
Those are very cutey-bombalooti booties!
