WHAT A BEAST THIS WAS TO KNIT!!!
AS YOU CAN SEE, I FINALLY COMPLETED WHAT I AM CALLING MY "COLLEEN SWEATER" AND GAVE AS A GIFT TO MY DEAR FRIEND ON SUNDAY AT HER BABY SHOWER. WITH THE SLEEVES, BUTTONS, AND LABEL LEFT TO DO, I AWAKENED AT 7 AM THE MORNING OF THE SHOWER AND WORKED LIKE A MANIAC TO COMPLETE THAT LITTLE BEAST!!! DONE WITH IT BY 10:30 WITH TIME TO MAKE A CARD FOR HER!
WHEW! TALK ABOUT YOUR DEADLINE PRESSURE!!
HAD SO MUCH FUN AT SHOWER I DIDN'T KNIT A STITCH THE WHOLE TIME!
HOWEVER, I AM NOT FINISHED, AS I MUST COMPLETE A BABY BLANKET, HAT AND BOOTIES FOR THE END OF SEPTEMBER TO MATCH THIS SWEATER.
A LITTLE BREAK FOR ME RIGHT NOW IS TO KNIT LITTLE SOCKS BOOKMARKERS FROM WWW.PTYARN.COM. I ONLY NEED TO MAKE 10 PAIRS PER REQUEST OF MY BELOVED MOTHER-IN-LAW BECKY, WHO NEEDS GIFTS TO GIVE.
I THINK I'LL WORK ON "SONNY" TODAY, AND MAYBE FINISH HIS FACE.
AFTER THIS, WHO KNOWS WHAT I WILL DECIDE TO KNIT FROM MY LONG LIST OF PROJECTS.

Lovely little baby sweater. Yes, I'm new to your blog... What pattern is it? What yarn?
