When my daughter found out that her step sister was having a baby, she asked me if I would knit Sebastian a pair of the pants that she found so useful when her baby was a newborn.
I have made many, many pairs of these pants but I had never made them with variegated yarn before. I love the way they have turned out. When I showed these to a friend of mine, she called them funky, so the name has stuck.
I had made the Puerperium Cardigan that everyone loves in this same variegated yarn and I loved it so much that I made these pants from the leftovers. Don’t worry, I put a note in her knitted parcel to say that she didn’t have to use the cardigan and pants at the same time. I think that would be a bit much for a wee bubba. (I got a bit carried away. There is a hat too in the same yarn. Please mummy, don’t let Sebastian wear all of these together.😄)

I love the argyle effect that happens on them. So cool.
You just never know what a variegated yarn is going to knit up like. It’s always exciting.
The funky pants at last!!! I love the patterns the yarn made. So cool! 🙂
Yes, the funky pants at last. 😄
I have so many more FO’s that I haven’t had time to put up. I need to get more focused.
