Booty-not-so-licious

I've been making some baby booties for the Ravelry Ravelympics, Baby Dressage event. I decided that I'd knock some together for Jo's new baby, Oliver (who looks rather cute). I found a pattern in Erika Knight's Essential Crochet and off I went.

I quickly realised that the problem with making two of the same thing, is that they both have to be the same.. the lovely soft as anything UK Alpaca wool I got from Prick Your Finger, in Bethnal Green is so lovely, its just a shame my booties look funny.

Maybe I should start again?

Books I want: Creepy Cute Crochet - Zombie, Ninja, Robots & More

I saw this book on FutureGirl's blog and I want it. You can make little ninja, scary monster.. it looks excellent. I know who I need to make that monkey for.. she's even asked for a crocheted something for her bday which is coming up in August. Better get on that!
