What's on your Needles?


Needles, yes they do make a difference... I can definitely knit better with nicer needles.  I had a pair of green metal, very long needles I started knitting these cute little booties on, had enough of that after a few rows and went out and bought these "sweet" wooden needles, love them.  I knit these little booties up in a weekend, felt so good to have a project finished, usually most of my items take a while, so a quick finish it was and just in time for a baby shower last weekend (quilt went to the shower too, I'll show that in another post).  These were 3 months size and the first time I ever knit booties on straight needles, usually I do bably socks on double points.  Found this little pattern on a daily knitting calender I got for Christmas, and has 3 different sizes to knit.  How do you knit your baby socks/booties, straight or double point?

p.s. The little bit of knitting that I do, I like the needles that are joined in the round. It's what I make my knitted grown up booties on..

Very cute! I don't knit~ I tried, the needles and I didn't get along~ but if I did I would make small cute things too. :-) Happy stitching!
