Lace-Cuff Anklets for my girls

Hi everyone! I've finished 2 pairs of Lace-Cuff Anklets by Ann Budd for my little girls:
These were so fun and easy to knit and were my 6th and 7th pair of socks from this book. If you'd like to see more pictures or get more info, you can find it on my blog. Thanks! Tiennie

Lace Cuff Anklet

What a lovely knit these were. For anyone that hasn't done much lace these would be a perfect start for you. After the cuff, the rest of the sock is a very simple knit.

And I think the KnitPicks Gloss was a perfect yarn for these. The only variation to the pattern I made was the needle size for the cuff. I CO on the size 4 as instructed, however, I knitted the cuff on a size 3, then moved to the size 2 as instructed in the pattern.Now, I'm happy to say I've started the Waving Lace again, with Cherry Tree Hill. These are in a gorgeous Cherry color, but of course my camera won't give you a good look at that red. I'll have to try a picture outside to or check out the picture below of the yarn in the tree, this yarn is on the bottom limb. I've not had the pleasure of using CTH before but may I say what a lovely yarn to work with. I really like the results so far on this sock this time around. [keeping my fingers crossed] I DO love this pattern.

'Gloss'ier Future

Ok, so I found one of those patterns that I was looking for....you know the one that will make that 'Gloss' yarn pop. What do you think?

It's the Lace Cuff Anklet by Ann Budd (pg101)

Yarn: KnitPicks Gloss

Color: Woodland Sage

Needles 2, 3, 4

Again, these pics are 'pre-blocking'. No variations on the pattern or anything else, just straight forward knitting. I think it came out quite lovely and these are going into the 'gift' queue. Now I need to go back downstairs and start the second one.
