Now on to knitting - some in progress, some not.
I finished Baby L's flakey socks. I am now quite glad I did not save this project as a St. Nicholas gift...
Mama, something isn't right here...
here's big sister to
Uh-oh. Wait a minute!
Yeah, those size 6 - 12 month socks almost fit C. I know my children tend to have small feet but this seems a bit silly. Is this an issue with the pattern or me? I really couldn't tell you. I am leaning towards an issue with me, though. I didn't take the time to check my gauge, which I know is a big no-no in knitting. Does it make it even worse if I tell you that I almost never check my gauge?
Oh well, the good news is that he'll grow into them. The not-so-good news is that it won't be for quite a while.
I had the chance to knit and plan Christmas gifts in the van last weekend when we took a little trip up to Mt. Hood. The photo above gives you an idea of a couple of things I have going on. The first is what I cast on for that trip (I needed some mindless knitting). It's a little something for Baby L and I - the Babywearer, or as the girls and I are referring to it - the papoosa. That project is not Christmas related at all but just something Baby L and I need to help keep us warm around the house.
The book you see with the yarn is a project taunting me for Christmas time. I have decided to knit the girls and their special baby dolls their own sweaters from Phoebe's Sweater
In the meantime...
What are you working on? Happy creating!
