my january donation to bundles of joy is finished - another sleep sack (using my favorite sleep sack pattern - snug as a bug by robyn devine (rav link)).
this was an attempt at using up more of my random bits of leftover yarn, i held each double and knit until one ran out and then switched colors, attempting to follow a rainbow-ish pattern.
i'm happy with the results, i think it's definitely scrappy-fun and not "oh my scraps threw up all over my knitting" ...which is what i was trying to avoid.

I love it! What a clever way of using up oddments, it all looks so planned!

Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous!

Ah hahaha! No, these scraps definately did not throw up on your knitting. More like whispered sweet nothings to it.

Aww! That is so cute. I agree with Lindsey about the scraps, and how they whispered sweet nothings. :)

huh...I never would have thought of combining scraps in this way but it looks great. Of course, I'm not surprised!

You have a good eye for colour!

I love this idea! Oh the possibilities are endless.
This particular color way you invented...THE COOLEST!

Oh wow! I love the way those colors work together! I'm always scared to start a stash-busting project that uses random colors for the same reason, but this turned out so amazing!

i never really got the sleep sack thing until having a baby. and now i'm sad that he's already grown out of the one i knit him. they are so practical! and this one is so wonderfully happy and joyful. what a lovely gift!
