Duckies!

Not quite done yet, and certainly unblocked, but you get an idea of what they look like.  This is the bottom of the sleep sack front.  And one more:
The front tapers up in an a-line from the bottom and is split in the center for the zipper.

That's what I was up to this weekend.  Trying out my new EZ-Bobs, which work so well, I ordered more in a smaller size.  I didn't really need the larger ones, but I wasn't sure.  Color work is fun when you don't have skeins of yarn tangling in the back!  The EZ-Bobs are round so they slide off each other and don't tangle like the old-fashioned rectangular yarn holders.  I had to use both because I didn't have enough EZ-Bobs.  Soon that won't be a problem.

I have decided to line the sleep sack with some really cute cotton fabric, so baby's toes don't snag on the knitting.  Something washable and soft.  Should I consider fleece?  Or would that be to warm?  What about cotton jersey?  That would stretch like the knitting...What do you think?

Happy Knitting!
