no words.......

For how incredibly smitten I am with this sweater pattern........
Autumn Leaves Cardigan
Green is for Baby Girl Savannah due in September
Purple is for a 2 week old baby girl who, as far as I know received it today.....I am still waiting for an update and if you are a knitter and aren't there to see your knitterly gifts given, then you know that this is driving me nutty!
Red is for Baby Girl Peanut who will arrive sometime in November.
On the needles currently for Peanut (since she is my Yarn Bombing Project right now)
is Big Bad Baby Blanket from Stitch 'n' Bitch knit in Berroco Comfort Chunky. It's wonderful, it's fast, and it's machine washable. The picture isn't doing the color any favors, it's really a dark brick red.
P.S. between the time I typed this 2 days ago and now I have since finished BBB and am currently working on some more peanut size accesories along with a funny surprise for my friend Lori in Cloquet.......
xoxo
happy weekend.
just think...in 6 more days my mom will be in a town and we'll on the ferry to Victoria B.C. for the weekend!

The 'To-Do' list...

and by 'to-do' list I mean 'to-knit' list. I'm really really trying to get on track with this list and stay deeply focused. It has helped that I have successfully removed all yarn from the living room and into Mr. Brown's Yarn shop on the second floor. Except for the fact that I went in there the other day with a shopping bag and loaded up. Currently in the sidelines to be finished 1. Ledge Trail Vest 2. Twiggy for me 3. 70 Yard Mitt for my other hand Finished those bad boys last night! this is what happens when you use the 10s burst hands free option on your iphone and you're holding said phone with your chinny chin chin. On the List: 1. Twiggy for a Christmas gift 2. Iris the Gourmet Monster but since it's for a boy I'm calling it Orvil. 3. Great White Shart Shark 4. Bosco - for me 5. Stillhouse Vest - for me 6. Woodsy - for me 7. Three Seahawk themed hats as gifts. 8. Gifts for friends... and on and on and on If you...

Finished Object

I'm not good at keeping surprises a secret...I get so excited that I usually blow it. Well not this time... I knit this sweater for Bump and had the buttons custom madefor it by Buttons by Robin, a wonderful shop on Etsy... She used a photo of Rupert that I emailed her...Rupert is their (Bump, C & M's) family dog... I couldn't post a photo until they had received the sweater which arrived on their doorstep last night... Oh how I wish I could have been there when they got it! It turned out amazing! Pattern: Baby Sophisticate Yarn: Big tweedy Cashmere (lucky boy) Please check out Robin's shop on Etsy I know you'll find buttons you love and she does amazing work!

W.I.P

Bears Barn Owl. We had a hockey game last night and while I'm normally so wrapped up in the game that I don't have time to knit, that was not the case last night. Silvertips have had a rough go and the Red Deer Rebels really wolloped them last night. So I knit. I ate some dingleberries. Delicious. and I knit some more. I have a feeling I'll be finishing this bad boy up by tomorrow and he'll be the star of the retreat. Isn't his color wonderful?
