baby uggs

booties for a friend's new baby:

i found the "suede" and "plush" yarns really bizarre to work with --i think i'm used to natural fibers and these felt too squishy. also, they turned out rather large for 3-6 mos, despite getting the right gauge. overall, though, i think they'll be a cute gift.

I felt the same way when using chenille yarn.

They'll love the booties. Bigger is always better when it comes to baby gifts. They grow so quickly. I never make anything below a 12 mo size.
