Happy (Belated) birthday!! I just dropped by to see your latest bib designs - little did I know there would be a birthday girl on board!! So..are you over this "old" thing? 60 is the new 40...isn't that what they say? I am only 2 years behind you, and I plan no remorse when I get there. Celebrate those discounts!!! leaves you more money for yarn! LOL. Speaking of, love the kids Regia yarns. Do you have a good source for those? or are you buying them locally? Not sure I know where I can find them, but might pick up some fun ones to knit for my BG. 50gm skeins? I hope.
ReplyDeleteThis was the perfect "Non-Caloric" birthday gift I could give to my sister, Mellisa. She absolutely loved it. Thank you so much for sharing this and your other beautiful patterns. SD Miracle

ReplyDeleteI probably used about 2/3 of a ball. I can almost get two cloths out of one ball of Peaches & Creme which has 122 yarns total. Hope this helps.
ReplyDeleteThis was just entirely too cute! Had fun making it. I WILL be making more of your designs. (This is my second one. The hippo -- OMG -- I couldn't even give that one away!)
ReplyDeleteWondering if I am reading rows 7 & 8 wrong. I can't seem to get each of these rows to match up to 37 stitches. What am I doing wrong? Thanks
ReplyDeleteI'm new to knitting. What are the numbers in ()

Do you have a revised pattern for the cupcake? It says to co 37 stitches but most rows call for 38.
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute pattern! Thanks for this, it was just right for a quick birthday present.
