Summer carnival shorties - finished

I was planning on finishing these earlier when me youngest son was having his nap and my eldest son was at pre-school but my youngest had other ideas about sleeping! They are finished now.


I love these, the colours are gorgeous and the ruffles look fab. They are so summery and fun.

The little flowers were a project for me, I think they look very cute.
This week - I have just started longies for Eleanor and Grace using the Under the Sea wool and I am also working on a couple items for buy WAHM month.

Spearmint and dark purple longies - finished


I have now finished the spearmint and dark purple longies, the pattern has fallen totally different to the boyish blues and greens longies but i think they look great. This is such a great colourway, the vibrant purple and the pale green look fab together.
I am now starting on shorties using summer carnival colourway. These are going to be a bit of an experiment to me and I am really looking forward to making them.
