Thumbs Up!

Ok I'm back on track. The upload problem was similar to my recent comment problem - changes to the settings - nice & simple once you identify what you've done.

Finally the very long awaited first Tiger Opal Rainforest Jaywalker

The above photo shows the bit where the black pooled a bit but I don't mind it. The heel managed to have a perfect orange & black stripey bit which I like alot but I doubt I'll manage to get the second one to do the same:

And finally something which really saved me time & hassle - a life line

This proved to be worth it as I went wrong on the toe & had to frog it. Not a problem with an extra bit of yarn threaded through the stitches before the toe shaping started but a total disaster without it.

And finally.....

my friends baby in Canada gives her approval to her Herringbone Bootees knitted in Debbie Bliss's Baby Cashmerino.

That Jaywalker is beautiful. The striping works wonderfully.

Thanks - I'm pleased with it. The second one has been cast on & I'm currently on the 2x2 ribbing.

I'm definitely going to do a pair of Tiger's in the Jaywalkers - I really like the way yours has turned out!
