FO - First soaker!

[joshs_girl]

It's the curly purly pattern and so ridiculously easy - I don't know why I was so scared to try one!

I call it the "twinkle twinkle" soaker, but perhaps it should be the "tinkle tinkle" soaker

The color isn't this washed out
Front view
"bum" view - but I don't have a real wee one yet, so this will have to do

Fabulous job!

Very nice

That is super cute! I love the blue yarn, what kind is it?

It's Araucania Nature Wool

It's a smidge rough when I think about it going up against a baby's skin, but I haven't washed it yet, so I'm certain it will be perfect once I'm done washing/lanolizing. It was really lovely to work with.

What size did you make? And did you really size down your needles as much as the pattern calls for? I just made a size small and it is so stinking tiny...... I just don't think it is right...

[joshs_girl]

This is a small...I used 2.5, 4, and 6s. It looks pretty small, but the doll it's on is somewhere in the 3 to 6 month range so I guess (or at least hope!) it will work. The waist band does stretch a ton!

So gorgeous!! And that yarn is beautiful, too.

Fantastic job, Kati! It turned out super-cute!

Thanks mamas!

And Amy - the super cuteness is totally due to you!
