These were a gift from a very special friend. Can you guess who made them?




Give up??

CAROLEE!!!


And she was afraid they wouldn't fit Neve. They fit perfectly!

Those are gorgeous! And so is Neve. Almost makes me want to try wool....:) just for the cuteness factor.

Wow - Carolee, Im just drooling over them - so gorgeous.

And of course, the model - Pam - she is so big!!! I haven't seen a picture of her in forever and cannot get over how grown up she is from the Lincoln Park Zoo outing last summer. She is a stunner!

[brigmaman]

What a great fit! Those are so pretty!
(On a side note, I always want to see more of your wallpaper when you post pics. I'm such a dork. :P )

[jec2]

wow, your little bug is growing up :) She is lovely and Carolee, awesome job!!!! LOVE the rainbow! Is that a seed stitch along the bottom of the legs?

[holliam]

Those look great!! That fit is just perfect, and the colors look great on her!

Carolee, is that the self-striping yarn from Cass? If so, how many skeins did it need? We have one, and I'm trying to figure out if Liam will have enough to make shorts...

Oh, I'm so glad they fit! I made those several months ago with yarn dyed by Holy Sheep Yarns - it's Cass' Spring Fling colorway that self stripes as you knit them.

I haven't knit anything since these shorts (or, I should say I haven't completed anything since them). I haven't been able to pick up the needles this first trimester - it's almost like knitting is making me sick during this pregnancy! I hope to get over it soon. I have a couple things I knit for gifts that are almost done and are WAY overdue to some patient mamas here.

Pam - Neve is so gorgeous! She's so big now - she looks really tall, too!

Edited to answer questions: I used about 5 oz for the shorts and drawstring - these are a size Large. And the cuffs are seed stitch.
