We’ve had a bit of “stay-cation” here in our house this week. JK’s been off work and we planned a few “fun” outings to coffee shops and bookstores. Most important we planned to have quiet afternoons reading, which meant I have been able to get a lot of “fun” knitting and spinning done. It’s amazing all the things you can do when you have an extra pair of hands to help with the wee babes!
I’m almost done with Baby John’s Christmas stocking. Yes, I know. I missed getting it done by Christmas. But I did get a cute sweater made for him. He really needed some bigger sweaters to wear, so I thought getting the sweater done was more important.
I am also working on a crochet mitt pattern. Aren’t they cute? I’m almost done with it. My two sisters are going to test crochet them for me. I need to add lace and some velvet ribbon to the wristband and then they will be complete.
Tonight at midnight I start my project for the new year – Knitting Zimmermann. I’m excited and nervous. I still can’t get over the fact that there are 133 knitters joining me on this knitting quest.
