snug as a bug in an......ugg :: part 2

snug boot pattern from pick up sticks. well written and fairly simple, i love these. lined with 100% alpaca they are super cozy. only downside is the foot is a bit wide. i thought about felting them more, but then they would be too short. i think they are supposed to be this way by design so i am content.
started: i don't know really, sometime this year
finished: 3/14/07
yarn: 3 skeins lamb's pride worsted in oatmeal and 4 skeins baby alpaca grande in 1310 (plymouth)
needles: for the lamb's pride, size 10, for the alpaca size 9 to get gauge
oh yeah, second downfall, the wet wool smells like a perm and it lasts quite awhile because they take forever to dry.
but still cute, no?
completely random markers over on the shop blog.

So cute! I love the colors you chose. And how decadent it must be to have the 100% alpaca lining. I always love me some alpaca.
I love them! I wish I could order the pattern and some yarn right now. But alas, I am participating in the knitting from your stash movement until the end of September.
I love them!
so cute! :0)
Frickin adorable!
So very cute! Can't wait to see them in person.
