I finished this in late March, but I was undecided about the button. I added one this morning….and I love it!
Tomorrow she’ll wear this for Easter! It’s fun dressing a girl!!
I’ve been on a starting spree! But I’m so excited that I’m enjoying knitting again and excited about many patterns!
Here’s some of the projects on my needles:
Pink Cabled Bag
My local knitting group is having a Knit-along (KAL) for a bag. Everyone choose a different pattern and this was my choice! Really enjoying it!
Here is a picture of the work in progress (WIP):
A baby blanket. There will be a new baby in our family soon and I’m thinking this will be for him. Since I took this picture yesterday this blank is already 3 times this size. Need to take another photo. The yarn is a machine washable cotton/acrylic which will be perfect for their hot summers. I want to make another one of these for me – so far it’s a great project!
Another KAL for my local group…this time lace. I’m thinking this will be for a certain female family member who always loves everything I knit. It’s even in a colorway that she would love. It was going quickly until I started the blanket yesterday.
I made socks for my stepmom last year and wanted to start my dad’s next. The yarn I picked out for his socks did NOT work and I finally realized that these socks were perfect for him. I think they will look awesome in his crocs or birks! They will be here next week and I’ll make sure the length is right and start the heels. Hope to have them done by Father’s Day…but we’ll see!
This is a cotton yarn that is left over from a couple of other projects. It will be a wonderful summer dress that I am hoping isn’t too big. Boring stockinette so great project for tv show to which I want to pay attention!
Hmm… no picture in my flickr account. It’s an oatmeal sweater – which is great – but not nearly as interesting as socks or lace so it sits….and sits…and sits. But one of these days I’ll start that 2nd arm and I’ll be wearing it – maybe next fall!

Entertaining a toddler is so easy! 😉

We had a few people let us know that both Eric and I needed to be at last night’s Awanas award night for J2. I knew how hard J2 had worked on his Awanas verses, but I knew he had fallen way short of many of his peers. And, this being our first year of Awanas, I had no idea what type of awards they even gave out.
He had won “Clubber of the Year” for the boys – which is awarded for “overall attitude, attendance, participation, preparedness and effort”! 🙂
Here he is with his trophy!
So proud of him! He tries so hard and it’s so neat to see that others notice too!
