Action shots!

This was an experiment using Purewool scrappy yarn. We are sensitive to itchy hats in our house. Usually they have to be lined with fleece to be worn. I decided to test out Purewool and see if it is soft enough for my toddler to keep on his head. He wore it for several hours without seeming to itch!

Anticipation can be a very good thing. This is headed to me...my hands are just waiting to pet it. I'm so stinkin' excited to knit this up into a Hudson Hat for our Hopefully Baby. "Kaleidoscopia" by The Paint Pot

'Tis the season for newborn woolies!

Yet even MORE newborn sized woolies! I love knitting for newborns. A super quick knit, satisfying for the knitter (in this case me!). It is amazing these little miracles are born to fit into something so tiny!

Still on the laundry list...

Ya know that laundry list of "to do" crafts I was talking about previously? No matter what I get sewn up or knit, my list seems to grow!

Still needing to be done:

Knitting 3 hats for a friend's kids for Christmas

Sewing my son up some fleece potty-training friendly pants

Sewing him up the next size of slippers

Here is a sneak peek...some beautiful yarn to be knit up into 3 longies and baby booties for ALovelyStart of Diaperswappers in trade for some OBV fitteds, wetbags, and an appliqued soaker for our Hopefully Baby. Can't wait!
