I love the edging on those pants, too cute. I'm expecting an order of Shine any day now... I can't wait. I think if I knit those up, I'm going to do the elastic band as well, it seems like it would be more comfortable than the draw string... Posted by: Meg at March 13, 2007 8:30 AMThose are really great! I have a lot of leftover Shine, and some stripey Shine pants would be a good way to use it up. Maybe I'll have to buy LMKG. Or check it out of the library. Every time I pick it up and look at it, it doesn't look worth buying (for my own purposes), but then people are always making nice things from it, so I reconsider! Posted by: Ruth at March 13, 2007 9:11 AMI knit a cami/tank from Shine sport last summer - it's so nice to wear. As you've been knitting up these little pants for Wee One I've been thinking my two little ones would love to have some lounge pants like that! Or... maybe I would! Posted by: Laura at March 13, 2007 9:11 AMYep, cute for the cutie!! Posted by: Chery at March 13, 2007 9:32 AMThey're adorable. Posted by: Julie at March 13, 2007 10:19 AMThose are too cute! I remember many sweater-modeling and photo sessions with my little one, who is not so little anymore and won't sit still for much of anything these days.

Posted by: Dileri at March 13, 2007 10:32 AMThey look like they'd go perfectly with the geek baby sweater -- too bad you had to give that away! Posted by: Mary at March 13, 2007 11:45 AMHow cute! She'll look so baby chic in those pants! Posted by: C at March 13, 2007 12:53 PMI'm thinking of making something similar for my pg collegue...just can't make up my mind Posted by: Orli at March 13, 2007 1:16 PMThose are so great - I hadn't thought about this kind of yarn sub, but I do love Shine! :0) Posted by: Charity at March 13, 2007 2:43 PMThose are so cute. Can't wait for baby to model them. Posted by: Sarah at March 13, 2007 2:44 PMso cute! I'm really liking the knitpicks shine. A lot. We know baby is fine and adorable, but how's Mom? Posted by: erin at March 13, 2007 3:00 PMThanks for reminding me of this pattern... it turned out so cute! I must get some Shine for the baby shower gifts I have coming up. Posted by: Karma at March 13, 2007 3:27 PMCan't wait for the knitted fashion plate that girl will be - but I can wait, I remember with my youngest, in the early days he wore the same shirt for days. As the third, the thrill of dress-up had faded - too many other things to do. Posted by: Sonya at March 13, 2007 4:16 PMAwww... yay! I am loving all of the babies being born in the blogosphere at the beginning of Spring... I love new beginnings. I can't wait to see wee one in all of her knitty goodies... hope you are having such a wonderful time of your life! Posted by: Allie at March 13, 2007 7:07 PMAwww, I love the picot edging =) I'm sure they'll look very sweet when she's old enough for her first photo session! Posted by: carrie at March 13, 2007 8:04 PMLove the pants! And actually... I think your newborn will be far more agreeable to a modelling session than, say, my busy 13-month-olds (twins) and my newly recalcitrant 3-year-old. Can't wait to see Baby L all gussied up in those gorgeous knits! Model on -- when you find the time, of course. Posted by: m at March 13, 2007 9:40 PM |
! I just love the color of the Knitpicks Shine - just like jeans, but oh so much softer. They were quick to knit up and someday I think I would like to make them with the denim, but for now I wanted soft, soft, soft for wee one. They're still way too big and long to try on her (and more importantly, wee one is still way too little to tolerate a try-on and photo session), but for now they look super cute sitting there waiting for her.
