User comments:

"Your format is so easy to follow."

"I love love love that you can either do a custom soaker or use the built-in sizes. Couldn't really be easier. Perfect for perfectionist like me and for those who want to use what they've got, and also for anyone who doesn't feel like measuring, doesn't have a baby yet, or is making this for a gift."

"You've really simplified the process for doing a custom soaker. "

"You have *totally mastered* short rows. I have used short rows on at least 7 or 8 things, and have tried at least 3 other methods. *Yours is the best by far. * Extremely simple, and virtually invisible. I actually had trouble finding my short rows when I was looking for them."

"I love that your pattern variations are spelled out right in the patttern."

" Best presentation I have ever seen! (And I have bought a few soaker patterns.)"

"I love the Techniques and Tips at the end (won't have to go dig up a how to knit book! Yay!"

This pattern (along with all my patterns) are available on Ravelry

The second of a pair of cable ribbing socks that has been in my purse for about 6 months. This yarn is beautiful, it just looks brown in the pic but it has flecks of many colors in it, very subtle and cool.

A ladybug sweater I made my daughter that is 90 percent done and if I don't hurry up it won't fit her when I finally finish the embroidery.

This shell that I made last spring, out of Microspun, and a my own design. I love it but decided the ribbing on the arm holes could be longer so I frogged some of that and need to reknit it.
