Not fabulous,but I am so stoked!( dd was climbing over me and I had to switch yarn at the crotch so it looks funny but I think it will be fab on! lol)
Super easy! I made it from teal llama wool & cream handspun wool ( I'm on a mission to use up all the yarn I have, this is what I had on hand! LOL). size small, but its big. I used the dandelion dreams pattern.
Patti - I'm thinking that it turned out big cause my yarn was thin? Not sure. Turned out good though, since it fits my dd She wore it out tonight & it held up well!
Diane! I just realized I titled the 2nd pic "action shot" - some action shot of KC huh? Kale'a had just woken up & was kind of a grump! She LOVES that I made the soaker though! Only 2 & she loves it when I make her stuff!

And, yeah - I did get all the talent! j/k! LOL
Isn't that KC's usual place??? I have tons of pics of him in bed.
And yes you do have all the talent. The only thing I make that makes the kids happy are pillowcases.

What was the weight of the yarn? And what size hook did you use?....Did you check your gauge?

I have no clue about the weight of the yarn - they were both handspun & I got them unmarked. I used the right sizes of hooks. Check my gauge????!!! Why would i do a thing like that? Nope, I never check my gauge LOL

Can you keep a secret? I rarely check my gauge. I'm gonna assume that the yarn you used is a heavier weight than what the pattern calls for - otherwise, if you used a lighter weight, but the same hook as the pattern, then you'd have big gaping holes in between the stitches.
