So I actually managed what I set out to do in my last blog post. Well, kind of.
\nThe needle rolls are all sewn up, but I couldn’t find the linen tape, so I’ve ordered more, and have to await it’s arrival.
\nSophie is finished.

\nI love all of Ysolda’s toys! They make such cute baby gifts – I don’t have to worry about whether they’ll fit, or the season, and everybody seems to love them.

\nSpecs:
\nPattern: Sophie<\/a> by Ysolda Teague
\nYarn: Sublime Baby Cashmere Merino Silk
\nNeedles: 2.75mm DPNS
\nMods: None! Although I stitched the eyes instead of French Knots, because my french knots kept sinking into the head.
\nLike I said, I love these toys, they’re all great fun to knit, and she writes such great directions that are easy to follow. Except for one thing.

\nI also worked on the Oblique sleeves!
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/center>
\nUp to this point I was doing both sleeves at once, but I’ve run out of one of the balls of yarn, so I’ll finish them off one at a time – I’m starting to feel like there’s an end in sight now!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
