These are some booties for my baby nephew. They are knit from a strand of Patons Silk Angora blend yarn held together with a strand of Rowan Kidsilk Haze. I have always wanted to try this pattern from the book Last Minute Knitted Gifts. This was the first time I'd ever done something with double knitting. You seamlessly and effortlessly knit a tube of stockinette by knitting a piece back and forth on straight needles and slipping stitches. You then separate the stitches onto two different needles and hey presto! These were very cleverly constructed and very simple.
