Sorry ! Lots of FOs and I finally took pictures of them.
Here's my first attempt at fair isle. 2 hats for my DSister and her wife (for now and hopefully it'll stay that way :) ) I used this pattern with patons bulky

And here's a couple of Republic hats. I used Moda Dea Tweedle Dee yarn in Sahara and Surf and Turf colorways. I found the pattern on Ravelry. I made the blue one (surf and turf) for my DSon's GF and the brown one (Sahara) for my DD.

Here is a baby papoose I made for a friend. I'm making another one for her as well as she is having twins. I just CO 4 and increased to a point and then knit in stockinette for a few inches and joined. Then I knit in the round for a few more inches and began decreasing and added some icord ties. I thought the open design would make it easier to get the baby in and out of the papoose :)

I made this Tudora for a friend who is in love with anything British :) I used Joann's yarn. I am not sure what the name is but it is sooo soft.

Both sets were made with Lily Sugar N' Creme cotton yarn :)
