One of my fellow librarians, one I know on twitter is about to have her first baby and there is nothing I like more than knitting for tiny people, so I knitted up a pair of Saartje Knit’s baby booties in some of the leftover yarn from my Spring leaves socks and popped them into the post and crossed my fingers that they’d make it through the postal strikes.

Thankfully they did and Maria has kindly let me use the photo of one of her kitties (George) providing scale to the tiny, tiny shoes. I can’t wait to see the wee one in them as soon as they decide they’re ready to appear!

Otherwise, it’s mostly baby knitting at the moment and secret baby knitting at that. It’s kind of amazing how many people I know are pregnant at the moment!
