Two.

Two hats. two kids. Less than two minutes to blog before someone has a meltdown. Definitely even less time to knit.
I still can't believe I am a mother of two. Its tough sometimes, but its also wonderful.
And I would not trade it for all the knitting time in the world.

Not much, but something.

I wonder sometimes if its just crazy to even try to knit when also attempting to care for a rambunctious toddler and a very lovey newborn. I suppose will just have to take my chances, because I am wicked excited to wear this one day. I will let that be my motivation to press on. Wish me luck.

Still Pregnant...

But not for much longer! We will be having our little boy on Monday. In the meantime, we are getting everything ready and even I managed to start and finish a few projects.

My most favorite model in the world.

I did a little stash diving on a whim and this shawl was my carry around project this summer. I really enjoyed working on it. I was lacking some knitting mojo and this helped a lot. It really made me happy I decided to purchase the Noro sock yarn way back when. It really did the trick.

I also started a pair of socks, which I'd love to finish before little guy arrives, and finished the crocheted blanket I started waaaay back when. A really fun project, but next time I am weaving the ends in as I go. There were oh so many.

All ready for little guy

Happy Knitting everyone. Hope to be back to the blog soon- with baby pictures!

Slow and Steady...

(hopefully) makes a sweater. I am still not quite sure what made me want to knit a sweater with an ever growing belly, or with upcoming warm weather, but sweater it is. I am just below the sleeves, working the wonderfully endless stockinette.

Knitting!

I went to the Pittsburgh Knit and Crochet Festival last weekend and picked up this awesome hand spun, hand dyed yarn by an absolutely lovely gal many of you probably know. I got enough to make simple roll brimmed hats for Kendall and I.

Cosy Spins Handspun -Bulky -Indian Corn Colorway

Its not much, but its knitting. Now I must get motivated to work on the sweater I started...

Remember Me?

I have a confession to make. I've been keeping a secret from you. But its time to come clean.
If the pictures of recent sewing don't clue you in...
our little family will be welcoming a new member the end of July!
I wonder what you knit for a summer baby?
