Hipster Babies

I made some Converse Booties for my friend Josh's cousin who is having a baby. The short rows were disconcerting - I've dabbled, but I still don't know (or am too lazy to learn?) how to pick up the wraps. Whatev. They turned out great! All I have to do is sew on a little felt circle and star.




For some reason I love the laces. They were just a two stitch i-cord, but they look so great! I've been commissioned to make a pair for my friend Andrew whose girlfriend is pregs. I am going to be a Converse making machine.

I'm also going to knit Josh's cousin's baby a mini Life Aquatic hat, complete with traffic light on the brim. That kid is going to be set.
