On Ravelry in the Budding Designers Downunder group there is a EAL(Embelish a long) going on for the month of January. The very talented Tanja of Watermellish has made available some of her gorgeous charts and has also released some new designs especially for the EAL this month. One of the charts released was this gorgeous strawberry. When I found out that a friend had her baby and it was a little girl I knew I needed to knit something to put a strawberry on! I settled on a Rainbow dress out of Lotus and Grapefruit Moon WOOLganic Yarn. This yarn is so gorgeously soft it will be fine on a newborns skin and it all worked together so well with the strawberry too. So here is the strawberry…the dress still needs blocking so the full garment picture will have to wait.
As if your knitting isn't perfect enough that you need to block it before showing us pictures! ;)
ReplyDeleteSeriously, your tension is so good. I'm a wee bit envious...
