Good Intentions......

With all good intentions in mind I was going to knit 25 of these little cutie's to make into an advent calendar. I got a total of 7 done..... Pretty sad hey??... LOL!!!!
So instead this year I've decided to do a 10 day count down to Xmas for the little princess and aim to get the rest of the stockings made for next year......
While I should of been knitting more Xmas advent stockings I was making more wash cloths instead. Here's a pink one the same as the brown one in my last post, pattern from here...I also got a chance to knit up this little moss stitch and cable bib (the pattern's a free Raverly download) for a special little baby girl to go with her Xmas pressie.....The pattern was really easy to follow but for my next one I've decided to change it just a little and put a row of cables down both sides and a fastening at the back instead of the side..... Take Care...... :)

  2. I love them - good luck with getting the remaining few done. Dont stress to much - the kids are only little and they will not know that others are doing it for 24 days! (that is what I am telling myself anyway)

  3. The little socks are adorable! Give yourself a break. You are pregnant and anything you get done is great in my book.

  5. The little stockings are so cute. Perhaps just knit a couple each month and they will be done in no time. Cute bib for the baby too.

  8. Well, I for one, am very impressed with your 7 little stockings. I, too, was going to make 25 for this year. I started one in November, decided it wasn't going the way I wanted it to, so I delegated it to next year LOL!

  9. Cute stockings - your advent calender is better than mine - might have to plan ahead for next year.
