Here is my first FO from the One Skein book. It's the little baby hat done in newborn size, Debbie Bliss Cashmerino, size 3.5mm needles. It's quite sweet. The detailed bits remind me of seashells, this would be nice in a pale peach or ice blue color - but as it's 'use what you have' month, I used this puce color from my stash. It only took about .333 of the skein. Any ideas what to do with the rest of the skein?
Knitting on the tiny needles was a bit fiddly, but overall went quickly.
tonight's project is a pot of soap. see above, that's what a pot of soap just getting started looks like. lumpy and fatty. i'm making Lemint soap tonight per my husband's request. That's Lemon-Mint soap to the rest of the world.

OHHHH Lemon Mint, Sounds fantastic I'd love to try that myself....Hope it truns out well for you! What oils are you using?
Hi, thanks for stopping by my blog :-) I love the baby hat, so cute and the color is nice and diferent for a baby not the same old baby colors. Lemint soap sounds wonderful!
Make the larger size for when the babe grows up, then you are ready. Its was a little daunting, IMO, when i got to the straight knitting but worth it in the end. If you want an even larger size, I've figured it out for the next size up. Have fun.
