New Design in the works!

I am shockingly bad at keeping my blog up to date and for that I apologise. My longies pattern has been released now for a number of weeks and doing fabulously. You can find it on Ravelry here. Also in the works is a brand new pattern. This one is for adults and has been submitted to a magazine. As a designer it is very exciting as I feel like I am a 'real' designer now! Please keep your fingers crossed for me. I have complete belief that my design is good enough so now I am just playing the waiting game. If it is a no from the magazine I will be publishing in my Ravelry store. You will just have to wait a few weeks to get it. Sorry :)

As a separate note I have renewed some of the listings for Knit Pro Symfonie needles in my Etsy shop. So if you are looking to treat yourself to some new needles pop over and take a look. I do my best to remain competitive on prices and if you like me on Facebook you will be the first to know when I activate a discount code.

On a more personal theme I have been busy working on another nephews blanket (Yes another one, the 5th nephew in 5 years!) and this one is my favourite one yet. I used the Dream catcher blanket pattern by Susan B. Anderson. I still have the border to knit but it looks fantastic and I love it to bits. I am very tempted to keep it but seeing as winter is fast approaching the poor baby definitely needs it more than I do!

(I did make a teeny mistake. Can anyone eagled spot it?)

I will try and check in more often. I promise. Next update the new nephew will certainly be here. I can't wait to introduce him!

Longies knitting pattern release coming soon!

I have been busy busy busy behind the scenes here at Snoozley Woozley Baby. I have yet another nephew on the way, due in October, so obviously he will need blankets, cardigans, hats, booties etc! In addition to constant baby knitting I have been working hard on getting my first knitting design ready to release as a pattern to buy. I designed these longies when my second son was in cloth nappies, originally for him because I could find any patterns I liked but later I moved on to selling my hand knit longies. With such little time for knitting these days I have now decided to sell my pattern with the ability to sell your finished items for profit on a small scale. Perfect for WAHM's to generate themselves a bit of income without the outlay of buying a license. So the long awaited pattern is nearly but not quite ready for release. I am waiting for the final yardages from 2 of my testers so I can write them into the pattern and then it will be good to go. I have written the pattern to be easily attempted by a novice knitter. The pattern includes increasing, short rows and kitchener stitch but full explanations are given for each of these techniques with excellent feedback on clarity of instructions from my testers. Modelled here by my incredibly adorable baby. Excuse the picture spam but I am so proud of my pattern and my baby that I can't help myself! Pattern will be released on Ravelry and Etsy before the end of the month (July 2013) If you don't want to miss the announcement please like us on Facebook as it will be announced there first.
