I think something pretty is in order, for no other reason to combat yesterday’s vent. So, how about a few FO pictures?
Side view:
The side view shows off the short rows in the bum, for accommodating a fluffy diaper.
Details:
Pattern: Sheepy Pants
Yarn: just about 220 yards of my hand dyed self-striping yarn
Start: April 13th
Finish: April 17th
Modifications and details:
*I did just three sets of short rows. I wasn’t sure if I had enough yarn, and figured we could get by with 3. For most of our diapers I can, but some of the bulkier ones it’s a bit of a stretch.
* I was planning on just making shorts, but kept going to see how close I could get to pants. I really liked the thicker stripes on the legs, my real motivation for keeping going
* I did both legs at the same time from opposite ends of the ball. For the record (as if I didn’t know this) this means stripes are backwards on one side. Duh.
Measurements: 17″ rise, 7″ inseam
And finally, just for fun, a picture of my silly boy trying not to laugh:
