Knitting pt 2

Here are other knitting projects.



This is my 3rd project - a baby blanket made with a "pound of love" yard in denim for Joshua. I thought I was being smooth by making it bigger, but I didn't do it correctly and now there's a large border on one end. :) The edges are all knit rows and the checker board is alternating knit and perl.



Another blanket for Joshua - it's made with denim "pound of love" yarn. It was knit on the diagonal (all knits no perl) with a yard over around the edge to create a bit of a border (that you can't see in this photo).



A snake for Kaitlyn's 3rd birthday. It was surprisingly easy to make. The stripes are all 10 rows of stockingnet stitch. The head used increases I had never tried, and the tail used regular K2tog decreases. The tongue and eyes are stiff felt.



I had a lot of yarn left over so I made a snake for Sydney (Gary's sister's daughter). It's a little different than the one I made for Kaitlyn since the multicolored yarn was used in between each color.
